The stock MAF is good as is and more reliable

But isn't that true for any High performance package you put on your car...bolt on or not

not to really..there is no other sensor on our cars that plays such a vital roll in our fueling than the maf (upstream o2s being a close second) sensors are also much more different than a cam or intake...the tune is set for a maf with a screen and the stock size with the resisters you have stock....you change any of those on a stock tune and your readings will be skewed...how they "make" more power is returning a lower voltage in comparison to a stock maf for a specific amount of air/load..so the pcm under-estimates the amount of air coming in so it cuts fuel and makes you run lean .......this is a big problem if you get a tune and they cut down on your afr ..then you could run even leaner than you think and well..the rest is obvious ....only gm mafs should ever be used for this reason..and even then caution should be used.

Thanks Milkman for explaining I knew some of this but I thought there was ways around it since I see so many T/As with the SLP on it and I was thinking doing the same.
After I get my Tranny replaced I was wanting to do some mods to the car

mafs are funny like that..some people can run them descreened and never have a problem...others cant..same holds true for the porting and polishing of them and aftermarket ones too.

I have been running the bigger z06 maf and have been loving it no problems as long as you have some one tune the car with the maf on it you shouldn't have any problems!!

Anything on the windshield under the AS1 line can get you a ticket
