Default Ported MAF ends

I'm thinking about geting a set of ported MAF ends from corvette centeral. Has anybody installed these & was there a noteable change in performance. Are they worth the money. :chevy

I got the ported MAF ends on mine. I bought them from xtreme motorsports. Nate told me that they dynoed 8 horsepower off this mod so I went ahead and bought them. When I installed them it felt like I gained some. For 90 bucks I would say it is worth it. Kaley

They'll only help you if your running rich. If your already lean, they can cause pinging.

If your already using hypertech tuning, etc.. I wouldn't recommend them.

Don't waste you money on ported MAF ends, they just screw up the MAF calibration... Your best bet in the MAF department is to buy a Pace 85MM MAF from Pace Pontiac (paceparts.com). This MAF has excellent mass flow calibration and also relocates the IAT sensor to the same location as the MAF sensor... Costs about $159 w/ screen or $20 more without the screen... I am running this on my car and I am very happy with it...
