bigger mas air will it help?
bigger mas air will it help? I have a 408 built fairly decent, I am still running the stock mas air, will a aftermarket one gain me anything noticeable? Any suggestions on brands and size?
Sure it will! Stock cube H/C ls1s notice improvements so I would say you surely will. I'd go w/ a Delphi 85mm or TSP 100mm MAF w/ FTP 85mm lid or (if they release it soon) a TSP 100mm lid, either one and you'll be set!

Brother, i know it will help... I recently added and unported FAST 90/90 along with FT85mm lid,Delphi 85mm MAF and gained 19 rwhp with a shitty tune!
do the lid, and the MAF, get a good tune and ill bet $$ you will be VERY close to 500hp..

27rwhp for a set of True Duals...
Really 
... What supporting mod's are you running with that? Are you saying you added a set of true duals to an otherwise stock LS1 and gained those numbers...?

27 rwhp, somethings wrong, my friend disconnected his SLP cat back on his 408 and only gained 4 rwhp. He did this because he was trying to determine if he should run cut outs.
My '09 Vette as per GM only gains 6 hp, not rwhp, with the NPP exhaust which is supposed to, at least partially, bypass the muffler.

A bigger MAF will help only if you already have a lid, throttle body and intake to take advantage of it. No use going with a stock replacement lid, to an 100mm MAF, on a 90/90 intake ... or worse an LS6 intake. 
Think of the intake system like your exhaust, you wouldn't run a 2-1/2" I-Pipe off of your 3" Y-pipe to feed your 3" muffler now would you?

Yes! If you upgrade to the 85mm MAF with our Fast Toys 85mm lid and get a proper tune, you will easily see a siginificant HP gain. We've had stock cube, cam only cars pick up .7-.8 MPH in the quarter. A heads/cam or larger displacement motor will gain even more.
FWIW, I was able to get the Fast Toys lid to fit on the Lingenfelter 100mm MAF. I boiled some water immersed the MAF end of the lid until the plastic was soft. Then I immediately slid the lid over the MAF and put on a band clamp. Worked great.
Thanks
