im curious as to what a maf sensor does and why everyone gets bigger ones? and whats the stock maf size on GT's?

 

its a sensor the reads air flow , temp , and sends the info to the computer to analize , fuel and timing and adjust as required......... i think lol

 

if i was to get a bigger one say about 90mm do i have to get the car chipped or can i just use it with out a chip

 

90mm. holly . you going blower? i think what your talking about is a throttle body?

 

lmao i am going to get a blower for sure but tell then iw ant to keep modding.. i unno i have no clue about the difrence in the sizes of the mafs as what there specified for.. but seems like most people have a 90mm maf so im guessing thats the one to get..

 

im not to sure my brother but i think that some of the techs here can help. sorry i couldnt enlighten you any further

 

thans dude

 

For your mods a 80mm C&L mass air would be perfect. A 90mm is WAY overkill for your car and could possibly hurt performance.

As for tuning as long as you get the 19lb injector Sample tube you don't need to change your tune at all, the comp will correct for it.

I loved my Mass air, great mod really smoothed the power out in my cars (both my 93GT and my 03 Mach)

If i were you buy the 90mm when you buy the rest of your blower kit, then sell the old 80mm and get your money back.

Good luck

 

what do u mean by the sample tube?? .. arent the stock ones 19lb?

 

I'm no tech....far from it

but save your money.....you don't need it right now

I ran a stock MAF until this year (went to a 90mm from a 70mm).....and ran the stock MAF with the KB at 6psi with 36lb injectors

I couldn't give you an accurate/technical description for why....but suffice to say the stocker was sufficient.....while the 90mm was optimum

if you think swapping to a bigger MAF while NA will give you automatic HP....it won't....a bigger MAF is all about capacity within the tune, and it's needed when your combo depends on it ....your's doesn't at this point

save your money
