The IPD helps most when our variocam kicks in. If you are planning on doing all these mods you have to get your car to a tuner or have the ability to tune it yourself in someway. When you are done and all tuned up, you will not believe the transformation in your car. I don't recommend a K&N filter. Stay stock. I was advised to do this myself by one of the the best builders/racers around for good reasons. Stock is best.
You don't have to get a tune done when using the stock MAF housing. K&N filters have better air flow then a stock air filter, you just need to rid the filter of excess oil before installing it.

I do plan a tune, but that will be done after my exhaust upgrades and I'll be changing over to the 987 MAF housing and larger pipping then.
