Default High flow MAF worth it?

just like the title says is a aftermarket MAF going to make that much of a difference compared to stock? one member on the board told me his tuner said aftermarket MAF's are hard to tune right. mainly granatelli like i have and he had.

I don't see how a stock MAF is any sort of a restriction. Even the screen is not a restriction, it straightens out the airflow to make the reading more accurate.

Once you start to wondering if the MAF is a restriction or maxing it out, it is time to go SD. No point on spending money on something that will not give any results.

I agree, I've heard that about aftermarket maf's whether its true or not but I agree with the SD though. ITs the only way to go with FI once you start making some decent power.
