Ed from lm Speed sends you a base tune efi live with speed density. I didnt use that one i used my own with hp tuners.
You could use a maf but there isnt much room for it in there. unless your good with fabbing and metal it could be done but it would take some skill.

You can get 10 out of it. The corvette guys do at least. Its the cam that wont let the boost stay, because the valves are open almost all the time bleeding it off.
