Exclamation Best MAF for stock Air box??

My MAF is toast. I tried to clean it (it was real dirty), but the car won't run right. It will start, idle poorly, surge and miss.

I don't have a lot of money, but don't want to by cap. I'm going to stick with my stock air box, and need an MAF for 19# injectors.

I have been looking mostly at the Pro M 75 mm. I don't like what I have heard on the C&L. Any comments?

Also anyone know where I can find one? I checked at Dallas Mustang and they only had one without the flange for the stock air box. Since this is my only car, I need something pretty quick.

HELP!

Getting rid of my 75mm Pro-M for the 76mm C&L was the best thing I did, it runs much better now.

I would check out the 76mm, when you upgrade injectors it will only cost $25 for a tube instead of $100 like the Pro-M. You could always make a flange?

If you're car is mostly/all stock, then I'd say stick with a smaller MAF than a 75mm unit. I doubt it would really hurt you...but it certainly won't help. A 70mm is definitely the largest one you'd need for a stock motor.

Thumbs up

Thanks guys. I had to order a unit already and I ordered the 75mm Grenaldi (sp?) unit. I needed a part real fast and could not wait. Does the C&L use the stock electronics? I think my electronics are toast, if I'd need new electronics if it does.

Hopefully this 75mm unit runs well. I'm not looking for big performance gains (yet), I just want the car running.

Thanks for the replies.
