I had no problems with a descreened sensor until I installed the supercharger.The car developed a low speed hesitation.I reinstalled the MAF with the screen and the hesitation immediately disappeared.

Here's a little insight on the screen issue. In '01 the z06 had a screen and 385hp. Then in '02 when upgrading for more HP engineers found the screen as a restriction and removed it, new hp 405 was realized. Really you only need the screen for straighting the air flow, like on a truck that has a 90* turn which will cause turbulance and inncorect maf wire readings, fix is screen to straighten airflow out. I know they put them back in on the LS2 for the reason stated. I would remove, and is the standard, screen for a dry shot because freezing can happen, not tomention restsriction. When I remove mine in my '97 I sqweezed it in a vice, and then I saw how much of a restriction it truly is (ultimate top end power). Hesitation on a supercharger not sure about this, but probably causes turbulance.
