I thought that that was for Forced Induction apps. Some guys talked about it in the FI forums here and perf trucks.

FI yes.
But, I was wondering if the 85 mm MAF was a restriction on the bigger bore na setups - seems like it would be with the heads available (360 -380ish)??

HumpinSS tested 85mm MAF vs straight pipe on his 430rwhp car, and dyno showed less than 0.5hp difference throughout the entire rev range, so i say it's not a bottleneck.

Thanks, man!
I was thinking more along the lines of total airflow through the enlarged intake (4" and 100mm cs MAF) feeding a 550-600 rwhp biggie sized block.

I went with a straight piece of pipe over the stock maf and gained 7 rwhp on the same dyno but different day. I am around 420 rwhp cam only. My butt dyno couldn't tell the difference.

I'm doing an A-B test on the chassis dyno soon. I'll post the results.

I'm very interested to hear what the results are from both John and Jason. I'm on the fence on ordering one for the LS7..

Will do since I will also be doing a back to back test. In addition, I will be trying out one of Jeremy Formato's ported LS7 intakes (just sent him a new core Friday). I will also be doing some dyno tuning to see if I can crack 510-520RWHP on a stock motor since I haven't done anything with my timing or A/F curves yet. If this doesn't get it then I might also step up to the 96mm TB!

being this is a 100mm for a NA application, is 105mm throttle body too much for a high performance NA application?

For what its worth the LPE MAf is nothing more than a current C6 meter element stuff into an aluminum housing.

No it's not. It looks more like a GTP MAF.
