MAF's and TB...worth it?
Ive seen some of these with some pretty high prices..are they even worth the money? Do they gain the #'s they say they do? Im curious..
If so..what would be a good app for my car..its a bolt on car..stock internals..with a 125-150 wet shot..What would benefit my set up?
Thanks.

how about a larger maf (85mm) to match a 90mm intake/manifold setup? I know i wouldnt want gain much from the maf but it should flow much more, contributing to some kind of power gain...
a ported tb is also a great idea. you can just do it yourself but you might mess p and not get the same results as bo white for example. I would just have him or another do the grinding for me when it comes to that....

I agree with everyone else. I have been told not to mess with the MAF. Several of my friends have changed theres and saw little to no gain. And in some of them it becomes too much air without a tune and i was told that the car retarded the timing some because of it. The throttle body polishing is definately a good idea. I just got mine back about two weeks ago from Cammin BeaSSt. I dynoed 7rwhp more and i can tell a difference. Before i got it my Tach in first couldnt keep up and it would look like i hit rev limiter at 5700. If i let it go up slow it goes to the normal 6200. But now after the throttle body it looks like im hitting limiter on my Tach at 5500. Its a good thing my shiftlight is on its way.
So i would definately recommend the throttle body. Hey Cammin do you do any other polishing work, like heads or anything?
