Default Yes or No on LS2 MAF...
Ive read a couple a threads with various opinions and "data" that might as well have been in chinese to me so...

My next mod is this...
Headers and tune (already have CAI/VetteAir/axel back)

Figured I'd add a Ported TB and Granatelli MAF to that, should I?

I have an 07 LS2

Just a yes or no will suffice, thanks.

No to the MAF, yes to the TB.

Here is one waiting for install. The black seems to be in demand lately:


Original silver:


$149 plus shipping. Dont pay this much for a mere porting that takes a porter 20 minutes. Get the best looking one around for the same price.
