yes there was a lengthy thread that detailed a lot of mods, from free to high end. What to expect in horses per cost. I've read through it quite a few times over the years. Just keep searching, I think was called mods 101, or what every newbie needs to know, something like that - can't remember.

Dont remove MAF screen... You will not feel anything power wise, will ruin your MAF in short period of time, i did it and it happened to me... That screen protects your engine from dubree that will get in your engine.
Easy mod is to simply clean your MAF sensor. You want real gains? Heads/Cam swap + dyno tune, it may not be cheap, BUT!!! Do it once do it right, but basic maintenance first and always!

And if there is any debris that gets past the filter, there is no way in hell that the MAF screen is catching it because it will be miniscule. Debris big enough to be caught in that screen will never get past the filter unless it has a hole in it.

What debris? That's the job of the filter.

Don't know on the Fbody but on the GTO's relocating the IAT away from the engine heat is very popular as well as a fast acting sensor, can build one for less than $10. Also if relocating the IAT sensor make sure it is still pulling correct air temps.

The only correct air temp is the temp of the air going through the intake tube. Relocating the sensor is giving the PCM false info.
