no cause what the maf is tricking the ecu into thinking there is less air coming in then what is causing it to go slightly lean inturn making more power but the problem with C&L they cause you to run to lean in a lot of cases and need to be dyno tuned

but if you have the money for a dyno tune then why buy a maf for a non supercharged stang there is no need cause you can do the same thing through a tune

see they were good mods on the 5.0 cause they come with a 55mm maf. so they were a major restriction but the mod motors come with a 80mm so they are not, you would not need a maf
unless you had a stroked block,P&P heads and race cams and then you still might not need one.
