supercharger maf problems

i have 383 procharger setup. i am currently running a stock maf and it is maxxing out and not allowing me to add any more fuel. what would be the best way to solve this problem?? i have heard that you can trick the maf into letting you add more fuel, but i was wondering if there was just a larger maf i could buy that would work?

Couldn't you just buy an 85mm one? I think SLP makes one and Granetelli

Can't you buy a recalibrated MAF for situations like this? Obviously you have to rescale, but at least you keep getting a variable MAF signal with greater air volumes.

sorry for the dumb ? but how does adding more fuel help if the maf is maxed? I know that it should make it richer for more power, but won't you still need more air?

What I did is I bought the 2 and 3 bar upgrades from HP tuners. I have yet to use it on my car. But it works sweet on a NA SD tuned car we did in 1 bar.
