Default maf question

slp 85mm high flow maf with matching sized intake cone filter and custom air bridge to fit the stock size coupler and tb. Will this work out? intuition tells me it should be fine. What do you guys say?

It would be ideal if the 85mm would fit the stock piping. Is it just a bored out stock one without the fin? help

85mm maf with a resistor to try to make it work without a tune. unless you are going over 500hp save your money. if you are dead set on an 85mm go with a delco and get a tune.

It is said to be adjusted though i wouldnt be suprised if i would still need a tune. Will it mate up with the stock airbridge or is this where it gets interesting?

you can get a brand new delco 85mm maf on ebay for $50 shipped. throw in a fast toys lid and the connector adapter, then youve got a real 85mm setup. all of this will run around the same price as an slp maf. in the future is you go to a fast 92 you will be presetup. plus your iat will be built into the maf and give a better reading.
