Default What MAF with a FAST 90/90 setup?

I have a LS6 MAF that came with the car that I bought and I am not sure if I should try and sell it to fund other mods or should I keep it for when I do the FAST 90. Thanks

Well, the ls6's and most aftermarket are 85mm, so you intake setup will be SLIGHTLY restricted by the sammler MAF. TSP is coming out(ONLY GOD KNOWS WHEN) with a 100mm MAF that would work awesome on a FAST 90 setup! You could wait for it, unless you're in a rush or TSP tales forever to release it!

i think the more or less accepted fact on the forum is if your already beyond the point where the stock maf is a restriction, then speed density is your best option

That is the MAF that I have and I think that I am going to keep it. Afterall it was free because it came with the car. I would think that a 100mm MAF would be better suited for a boosted application. Just my opinion

I have one but have not installed it yet. I'm waiting for some other parts so I can do my FAST 90/90 at the same time.

One note, it does require a tune to use this MAF as the MAF table must be changed to accommodate the new piece.
