Upgraded ETS MAF intake

I just bought this intake and I have future plans to buy the gtx3576r turbo. The regular intake was like $270 and then with the larger maf was another $200. My tuner recommended getting the large MAF becaude of the upgraded turbo.

If I plan to install all my bolt ons and get a tune for now and add the larger turbo in a few months, is the intake going to be a problem on the stock turbo? I wouldn't imagine it would and the scaling seems straightforward but the ETS website said (requires larger turbo).

Any experience?

I would assume that it's the same as the ams intake since the ams has a bigger maf housing

You don't necessarily need a larger turbocharger to run the big maf, but it will require re-scaling to read correctly. The factory maf housing is perfect size for the stock turbocharger, but if you plans on upgrading it doesn't hurt to get it now.

I went ahead and got it, someone from ets just e-mailed me this morning asking "what size inlet are you running, we want to make sure you get the correct coupler". I told him I had stock turbo but am ordering the gtx3567r soon and he never responded. Do I need to order a high flow compressor inlet elbow?
