Default MAF Translator ???'s

Ok I wanted to know which is the best setup for my car.My mods are as follows:
-SLP Long Tubes & B&B Catback
-125hp Dry Shot
-3.42's
-Lid and free mods
- Also I live in Vegas, right now it's about 50 each day and will get hotter. Should I lean the car out?Make it richer?Thanks

Well you really don't know if its running rich or lean unless you dyno it or A-tap it....then you will know...you could always get an AFR gauge to get a ballpark idea..I wouldn't go messing with an MAFT unless you really know what is going on...but an MAFT would be good for riching the car out while you spray...

Getting to lean with spray = BOOM!! <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0">

Ditto what bigbos said.

If you spray you should have ATAP or an A/F guage.

fuel pressure gauge for that much spray on a stock pump.

you need to a-tap or at least dyno with an a/f meter to even start adjusting with the maft
