Default Mass Air Flow Sensor

Does anybody have any experience with the Granetelli MAF for the Z06?
They claim 10 to 23 HP over stock. I have the Blackwing and the neoprine coupler for air so far. I am considering an upgreded MAF and throttle body. Would appreciate advice from those who know, or have been there & done that.

For a near stock car like yours stick with the stock MAF and the stock TB

Don't waste your money on either one. Very little to no gains for a lot of money.

The stock MAF is good for way beyond 500 hp. I'm running 477 at the wheels with the stock MAF.

Thank you all for the advice. I will stick with the stock MAF. Too much throttle just smokes the tires in first and much of second gear anyway. Lack of power does not seem to be a Z06 problem.
