Has anyone added Dinan's MAFs to their stock air intake system?

Hi Guys,
Is this doable and would there be any postive gains and or benefits by changing the stock MAF and adding Dinan's MAF units, BUT leaving the stock air intake system intact. Any thoughts on this? Comments are appreciated.
Thanks.
Robert

Don't see where any gains would be. You wouldn't be allowing anymore ambient air in just allowing the same airflow to to reach a larger diameter chamber that being the MAF. I think it would degrade performance rather then help IMHO.
