Is the maf-t a bad way to go?

[mmmmbst]

Ive been reading a lot of threads lately about how everyone thinks its a bad mod, is this true? I'd rather have the link but i think im going to move to the EVO side soon so i figured id buy one and make the car run better than only with the safc so i dont sell someone a car with tuning issues. I have it in front of me now and im kinda skeptical on putting it on now. Someone please tell me some positives about this mod.

I have absolutely NO problems with mine whatsoever! It works perfectly and if you check my other posts, you'll find my dyno sheet with a/f on the bottom. I have no changes with the weather (even right now with our 40* at noon, 1* at midnight thawing/unthawing), not even during huge downpours. I would say that anyone that does have a major running problem or has to compensate greatly for the gm maf has a bad one. Orientation in the piping has a lot to do with it too, you have to have the diverter (that piece in the middle of the circle for the laymans out there) straight up and down or the air hits it funny and the readings don't come out right.

Bottom line, if you get a good gm maf and install it properly, you'll have a setup that outflows nearly everything out there and it'll work extremely well.

Go with 450's, zero out all the dials except the wot, set that one click clockwise.

You mean the where the plug goes?

Full spool at 2100rpm.....Ya right! I get full spool (15psi) at 3300rpm with a Evo 3 16g and FP2 cams. Can you prove this statement?

Boost leaks? Also, the evo3 has a slightly larger compressor wheel.

I had a maft with dsmlink and ended up getting rid of it. I absolutly hated it. But I also live where it gets pretty cold. It ran like total ass. Under 50 degrees it would start running like crap. 2g maf ftw.

i think it all depends on how you tune it
