Engine size makes no difference. Doing a 'sewer pipe mod' ( which is essentially what this is ) can have adverse effects on the transfer function of the MAF that the PCM is expecting to see.
On your '06, how were you going to relocate/mount the MAF itself? This alone is a big deal - that location is critical.
You will not know for sure without logging.
This has been discussed many times previously/recently. Please search for more info on this, guys.
Thanks

Maf location
I was going to make it the same distance from the filter as in the stock, as any other connection. I wouldn't exactly call this a sewer pipe though. the box and tube will be made out of SS with a plexiglass top for access to the filter. I know of a local place that does datalogging and can do a tune afterwards for me too.

Take for example a tube that is 2 inches in diameter...let's say air is traveling past a certain point at 5mph...now let's take a tube that is 20 inches in diameter and say the air is traveling past that at 5mph...same reading from the MAF...A WHOLE lot more air going past. It's an exaguration sure, but you get the point.
