As far as the tornado nope I'll keep making fun of that.

You know, I'd never buy a tornado. But if a family member bought me one as a present, or I found one that was supposed to fit my truck for free, I'd give it a shot. What the hell. As long as it doesn't mess up the MAF. I love the look of the 19" RR wheels on DII's. If I bought another one for street only, that would definitely be the route I would take.

i never had any problems with the MAF Sensor yet. Is it because of the tornado?
because i heard it from someone said that ill give me some problems with a sensor or was it the KN filter? it doesn't really matter i got both of them on my truck and no problems yet
