Forced Induction + Mass-Flo Fuel Systems
Just wondering if anyone has experiance with this system on their forced induction application? They claim no tuning is required, just install and go. The system tunes itself . Things that seem too good to be true usually are, any insight guys?

I'm using a mass air flow sensor and I can definitely tell you that statement is about as wrong as they get! You still have to adjust for fuel injectors, idle, TIMING is a big one, etc. etc. Plus, you will probably max out the reading on the MAF and you have to tune for that as well. In short, no!

Mass flo sells a lightly reworked ford mustang 5.0L MAF system with a unique throttle body. You could piece the kit together for a fraction of the cost with a building it yourself. As far as never needing a tune, that's pretty much a steaming load of bs.

Is something like Megasquirt better? Ive seen my buddies FAST EFI tuning software and the word "simplistic" doesnt come to mind. I want something that i can tune myself with realative ease

BlownBird-
I know what system you are talking about and was wondering the same. It does seem too good to be true. I have a procharged 06 gto, and was interested in modding it further. But I'm unsure of modding to the point that I can't tune it myself. I have EFILIVE and I guess I just don't know the program well enough. I've only tackled the small things with it. Hell, I haven't talked to anyone aound here that knows how I can autoVE it. I called a local shop and the guys there told me that they only tuned "ls1 stuff" and didn't know anything about ls2's. hence my interest in this system. I have a 74 ford bronco I was thinking of doing an lsx swap on, I might let it be the guinea pig.
