YarisHilton, I'm sorry, I kinda got lost in your post (doesn't help that I'm rushing here, I'm also studying for a test).

In simple terms, when engines were dumb, as with carburetors, they could be fooled by a HP filter, but new cars with OBD-II watching the airflow isn't going to let itself be fooled for long; it'll adjust to anything new that it's seeing, unless tuning is altered.
