Unless you are planning on making over 650 RWHP, I would not worry about changing your MAF!!! :)

Go with a MAF-Translator as a supplement to what you have, cheaper and will work.

We carry them in stock.

How exactly will this suck more air in??? The MAF T is a TUNING instrument?!?! This will ONLY help you if you have a tuning issue and you should only use this in conjunction with a good scanning software so you can see what you are doing without frying your motor. We use the EASE software for this.
Good Luck,

Exactly. Using Auto Tap and the MAFT will benefit the car more than an aftermarket MAF. If you have a buddy with Ease or AutoTap, then all you need is the MAFT.

We have auto-tap software for $240 and the MAFT's at $175, shipped free.

Again, The MAF T is NOT going to help unless the car has a tuning issue in the first place. So a blanket statement that it will help the car is NOT accurate.

JMHO,
