I am in the process of designing a true CAI without fabricating into the fender wall. I have been looking at SpeedDemons' Ingen concept and I am trying to follow something like it. I have some questions though.
Does the distance from the TB to the MAF matter?
If I change the distance will I start getting CELs?
Also, lets say that the MAF is mounted on a 90 degree bend (or after it), will this cause the same CELs or as long as it is the same distance from the TB it will be fine?

Kind of like this
and this


Thanks SpeedDemon for the pics
