Default Granatelli MAF Sensor...what to expect?

I just bought a GMS MAF sensor from a forum member at a very reasonable price. Based on my mild mods (see SIG below) what, if any, performance difference should I expect? Does anyone predict a SOTP difference or would the mod only show up on a dyno in a form of a couple of HP?

Thanks,
Dave

Need more info....
Was it calibrated for 5% rich? Or just stock? If it's just stock then you'll probably run too lean. Doh! I just realized you have a 98. Since they notoriously run rich, a stock GMS may be ok. If not, You may actually need a MAFT to reset your AFR's. Also you need an Autotap of some sort to monitor.

I always recommend going with the Ported Breathless MAF ends/MAFT over the GMS. This offers more flexibility. The GMS can work however, It just needs help from a MAFT to get everything perfect.

Car seems to be running fine. There may be some small gains but no real noticeable difference though. :chevy
