MAF or speed density
MAF or speed density im doing a turbo ls1 and wondering what is better, a speed density setup or mass airflow sensor i know this is problably a common question but i havent been able to find an answer
id love a answere to this question too..the guy i bought my turbo kit from was running speed density...the reasoning for him was cuz the guy who did his tuning recomended it...well i need more of a reason then that!

i will be running a 408ci and a gt-91 turbo and plan on about 15psi what would be the best for me... whats the pro's and con's of both

I've never found a detailed explanation on this. Some say its bad and others say not so much.
I have a SD tune and I live park city UT most of my driving is at 6,500- 7,200 ft/elevation, the temp can be 40 in the morning and 90 by after noon. I have never felt any differance in the way my car drives. I also see very little, if any change in my wide band gauge. So I've been happy since the MAF to SD tune.
what i have been told is that our computer does not read the maf past 500whp, so i after the 500whp it is a guessing game .
with speed density it is not, but does speed density correct for weather change ? i think you still keep the IAT sensor for SD, don't you ?

The only way an altitude change would affect the tune is if the barometric reading wasn't updated with enough of an altitude change.
Temperature changes do not affect speed density....my AFR is the same in the winter as it is in the summer
