Replacement MAF tubing I have a TSP 100mm MAF w/ LS3 MAF card. I'd like to experiment with using smaller diameter tubing while keeping the MAF card. Any suggestions where I can find such tubing which already has the MAF mounting boss included?
Been there done that. Buy a 3.5" Aluminum pipe approx 4" long, and the bung you can buy separately. Both together were like 20 bucks. You'll notice it actually CENTERS the card MAF using a 3.5 pipe.
Spectre sells a 4" MAF tube for a card style MAF with the bung already attached. It comes with 2 reducers to put in it to strengthen the MAF signal. Got it from Summit Racing. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/spe-9705/overview/ $29.97
I have 1 for my LS7 MAF

It doesnt strengthen the maf signal. It normally decreases the sampling area that passes over the card. 2 completely separate things.
The card only reads off nearly the very end of it, so keep that in mind.

Laminar airflow isnt caused by the inserts they send, which is kinda what you are aiming for as far as a maf signal. If you move the floor of the tube closer to the actual maf sensor spot, any number of things can happen. Sometimes it changes the place/Hz at which the maf populates at, which can trick it into using the lower signal fuel cell. The same thing is accomplished by putting a resistor in line like the SLP mafs.
