Default Re: MAF Advice

IMO, don't waste you time with this MAF. A MAF is designed to simply measure air flow. It is critical to your operation, but unless you need to bring in more air than the current MAF can support, upgrading is not needed.

As airflow increases, the voltage from the MAF increases. If you are maxed-out, you will see 5 volts. This happens around 450 hp if I recall. I am putting almost 400 hp to my flywheel with juice, and the MAF is still not pegged.

I would stay away from this UNLESS you are planning to add a huffer soon.

The ONLY way that an after-market MAF will net you more hp is is one of the below items is true:

1 - You existing MAF is maxed-out

2 - The new MAF is resulting in a leaner a/f.
