Thanks for any advice.

I would also like to know since I will be buying these bad boys soon. Direct Flow lid, powershot filter, and SLP MAF are already on order.

My O2s went from about .870-.880mv to about .930-.940mv after the installation of my QTPs. I was running stock manifolds with stock cats before. I reset the computer, let it relearn, and now the O2s have settled in at .905-.910mv. I won't be doing any adjusting until I get it on a wideband. It seems to running GREAT like it is! Can't wait to get it to the track this weekend. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

you honestly wont need a MAFT, as colonel said it will only make your LTrims on your o2s read little higher. this in the end could possibly deaden your o2 sensors, however running rich wont be detrimental in the scheme of things. personally i would rather obtain some tuning after headers if you have the programs, or know someone that can help you out in the area. LS1Edit is the best solution, everything else is just a band-aid.
