It isn't something i'd do to a road car, because you may notice less power lower down the rev range. Obviously if it's a track car which is always in the high revs..... it's a decent mod
Just learned that 1 tooth is too much...but the car gets so much better with a 2.5"decat. (I was using and empty cat) and if allow some space between the MAF and the filter you will see some results.sounds silly I know but try.
