I had the dealer do mine under warranty years ago.  Here is a DIY if interested:

Dus10R...interesting...but I must say I don't understand what the difficulty is with tuning an X50 (which is the same engine with bigger turbos). 

+1 on Kevin's tune.  He can send you a device that will log data and use the data to customize the tune.  BTW, the headers are likely not getting you anything and if they are longer than stock, they may be hurting.

There are several tuners that have a good rep.  Mark (911tuning), EPL and Protomotive to name a few.  I would give them each a call and see whom you feel most comfortable with

I see two part numbers (both are labeled "cover leather"

996 552 155 03  with D12 for dark grey

996 552 965 00  and D12

Don't know why it has two PNs with identical descriptions?

I'm sure Loren will sort it out.

99655215503

then the appropriate color code.  What color for you?  Black is A11

Just to validate the fix, put the old filter in again and see if the rough idle returns....

Yes, that is the power steering reservoir

Glad you got it sorted.

Dont need them unless your modified. Ive never heard of the stock units failing on a stock car. Theres myth, sort of like seeing bigfoot , that they need to be replaced. Its mainly bs to sell parts.

Actually I've seen a picture of one that went bad....and the remnants went into the turbos...not good. But as I already posted there are stories on both sides.

So there really is NO performance advantage. There is a potential reliability advantage, but this is debatable.

For what purpose? There is some debate on the Forge vs. Billet vs. OEM 710s differences. On one hand there is theory that the OEM's can fall apart with modified cars. On the other hand some of the billet's require maintenance...so pick your poison. As far as an F-hose...what other mod's are you running?

Let's please not just use internet information to extend the madness. There are aftermarket filters that work quite properly and their advantage is they don't need to be replaced, but cleaned and re-oiled. I have had the BMC for 9 years with NO blown MAFS. now wether the y produce any performance enhancements is up for debate.

Guys, I am not saying to everyone "go get your car flashed" and in particular I am not saying "get it flashed from someone you don't know and haven't done your research. about" That being said the stock programming from the factory is for, perhaps obvious reasons, conservative. There is much to be gained in terms of power especially when you have done other modifications. I don't care about warranty as my car hasn't been under warranty for some time (I did the tune when the car was a year old and was never denied warranty by my dealer). I don't care about re-sale as I intend on keeping it as long as I am able. Different strokes for different folks. Love the Feynman quote BTW....Challenger if I recall.

Fair enough. Those same folks should just know that there are a lot of garbage tunes out there.

I'm just curious, have you not had any issues passing emissions? In the state I needed to get my emissions in they are insanely anal. All "readiness" states were showing as PASS in both Durametric and at the dealer using PIWIS......but the state's software was doing something like a checksum on the flash and knew it wasn't OEM and would fail it every time. For a test being conducted by the government, I was highly impressed with their level of sophistication (granted the software was outsourced to a 3rd party vendor as I understand it). Anyway, with as "green" as Colorado/Boulder is, I have to say that I'm a little surprised that you never ran into the same issues. Also out of curiosity, who did your tune? Are you boosting with K16s or the larger K24s? I never experienced much turbo lag with the K16s. It's punch and go.

Silver, No I have NEVER had problem with emissions test. If I did I would just have to connect my flash loader to the OBD port and re-load the stock program. Kevin at UMW did the flash. We went back and forth with data logs to generate my custom programming (as I am at altitude). I also have hybrid turbos along with some other goodies (see my sig link). It is incredibly more linear and the torque curve is fantastic compared to stock. Yes K16s don't lag as much as K24s, but they do have some lag.

No worries, I just didn't want folks to get the idea a re-tune has no affect on the TT. Of course, do what you want.

The problem with these DME flashes is two-fold. First there is no upside in HP gains.

You had a bad tuner...my flash has greatly increased HP, made the torque curve flatter and lessened the lag. This is in general an incorrect statement for the TT.

To the OP I agree with the others for your C4...tunes just don't have much affect on your model.

You won't get any damage from driving with the car without the MAF. You might get codes thrown, but you can clear them after you install the new MAF.

MY? You mean the horseshoe that surrounds the NAV unit? It just pries off. The vent....here:

year and model please. On older models, emergency brake needs to be engaged and if the sensor goes...

So throwing a type 1 over-rev...I have never had an issue with blowing a MAF as a result of this (been on a stock MAF since tuned by UMW in 2006). I did blow several using the EVOMs air box however.
