Hey at least your werks intake is of proper dimensions

Have you seen what people do to the gm v8 mafs on the camaro/vette? They port the outside wall for more flow at the expense of running a bit leaner. Once you change the dimensions of the area where the maf sits you mess up the maf's ability to calculate the proper amount of air.
Im willing to bet that whoever has a fujita intake on their gxp that their fuel trims are on the negative side.

I knew something was off, i just dont see 20 sq inches on the intake. Thanks for the fix
