Default question about what mass air to use with 92/92 fast

I will be installing a fast 92/92 setup with my heads and cam on my 2002 ss camaro. I would like to upgrade the mass air meter along with the lid to take full advantage of the fast 92/92. what 85 mm mass air will work? I will be getting a dyno tune at the same time. could I use a slp 85 mm mass air for the 98-00 camaro and trans ams since I am getting the car tuned or will it still have problems? What other choices are there when it comes to 85 mm mass air meters? I have heard the zo6 mass air is also a good one to use. will all of them work fine since I am getting the car tuned? Or will it be hard to tune the car with certain ones?

Your best bet is the Z06 85mm or the Powrmax 100mm. Don't use one of the 'modified' after market air meters.

Is it hard to tune the car with the powrmax 100mm? I will be haveing it dyno tuned once every thing is installed and I plan on installing every thing at once.

Nope, Bruce provides tables to start with. Any competent tuner can tune with this MAF. It uses the LS7 MAF element with a custom housing.

Would it be worth using this on a h/c/i stock bottom end ls1? I am using the prc stage 2.5 5.3 heads and a 230/230 598/612 111+2 cam with a fast 92/92. I have been going back and forth debating if I should swap from the stock mass air and my regular slp lid. I don't want those to hender the rest of the set up from reaching its potetial. It just make since that if you use a 92mm intake the stock 75mm mass air and regular slp lid will choke down the flow right?

I have the Z06 MAF and the FAST TOYS 85mm lid, very pleased with the setup. I couldn't see running the stock MAF with the Fast 92 and choking it down.

I went with the FT lid and SLP MAF with my 92 setup, it fits together nicely.

the 100mm lids/maf combo would be nice to actually see. Some dyno numbers comparing the two would be nice as well.

x2

Especially since I am in the process of upgrading fuel system, intake, MAF, and lid so that combo would be good!

Only cars I've seen w/ the 100mm MAF are the 4.000+ bore cars, so will they even be beneficial on a stock bore/bottom end ls1? If so, count me in.

Another one for Z06 MAF... Like some of the others, i got a new one off of Ebay for $65.00 shipped.. Got the 85mm lid as well, along with the FAST 90.

stay away from the SLP MAF! way overpriced imo, and you are paying for the name! Everyone i have "personally" spoke with have pitched the SLP MAF and changed to the Delphi 85 mm (Z06).. Why wouldn't you?

GL...
