Default Aftermarket MAF sensor

Does anyone have any experience putting in one of the after market MAF sensors like the one Granitelli makes.

I have not heard good things about this MAF. Why are you changing? If you are looking for more performance check out the LPE 100 or an Abaco MAF.

All Granatelli does is to buy a generic Delphi sensor and plaster their name plate on them. Nothing special at all, you may as well keep your old sensor. If you want a real upgrade, use a LPE, Abaco 100mm sensor or, use a LS7 MAF in a 100mm tube. I use a Abaco in my supercharged LS7 engine.

What does the upgraded MAF do?

I have an LS2 with ported TB/IM, headers, and ram air... is it something i should look into?

It's a great upgrade to make yourself feel good about spending unnecessary money.
If you have a FI vehicle, then it may be necessary if you're maxing out your stock MAF. Otherwise, save your money for other things.
