I am trying to simulate that, but I am not sure what the best way to go at it is, I am trying to find a good place to ask solidworks questions like that. My computer isnt powerful enough to straight render the fine mesh of the screen, but there might be something in FlowSimualtor that I'm missing that will make it easier. . . .

Mine is! I'm willing do donate some cpu time.

I have a quad runnin at 3.75 with 4 gb of ram, its my lack of a graphics card with CUDA that slows me down. But I figured out how to model the MAF screen thing, so I will start doing a nice write up this weekend through next week.

I've got 6gb of memory, a quadcore i7 at 4.5ghz with 2 GTX285SSCs at 730mhz core clock in SLI. Plenty of CUDA power!

ever find out anything on my franken set up

I rendered the old northstar throttle body today, I will get crackin' on your setup this week, Should be fairly straight forward. I have solidworks setup to model air filters now too

This is very interesting stuff your coming up with Trent. I'm enjoying ever single bit of it! Keep it coming!

This is by far the most bad *** thing I've seen for car tuning

That'* very cool.
