A lot of the grand national guys run the $58 stuff. Bruce Plecan was a pioneer with the boosted grand nationals. His CNP stuff was nice too. RIP..

the right way or the wrong way? The wrong quick fix would be what the previous owner did, simply unplug the maf and put a tube in its place. The correct quick fix would be buy a maf, install it where the tube was and plug it in. These cars actually run pretty decent without a maf, the pcm simply uses a default value since it isnt receiving a signal from the maf sensor, which is why your car ran without it. Buy a new sensor and put it in. If the check engine light isn't on its probably because the previous owner took the bulb out, if that's the case replace the bulb too.
i will check what's going on when the engine its done and i found the connector,what does the MAF connector looks like ?
thanks !

I was in the turbo buick scene for a while (we brake for corvettes) and they can convert the MAF system to a non MAF setup that still learns. the guy is here in michigan that does it but I am sure you can do this with other cars and not just a grand national. the higher HP guys would delete the MAF for dependability.
it is not completley beyond the rhelm of possibilty that you can do this with nothing more than an ECU mod and correct wiring upgrades.
and my 90 IROC came factory with NO MAF, same engine, just change things out.
