Do you have a way to tune for a new (non-oem) MAF? If not, You'd be better off leaving your MAF alone. I may also have a new TSP 85mm lid for sale in the next day or so. PM me if you are interested

1. If there's loads for sale then it means people are wanting shot of them.
2. The stock MAF should be no where near it's limit, unless you're running FI and 500rwhp+, so any gains you would get from a bigger MAF would just be delusions as all it will have done is alter how the car runs, it will not have generated any extra bhp.
Personally, unless you have need for a bigger MAF, leave the stocker alone. There are far more worth while mods out there.

When we dyno our cars or engines, on either a rolling road chassis dyno or engine dyno we do not actually measure HP, we measure torque in lb ft, this is done via a BRAKE device. Commonly it is a large electro magnet type device, but could be friction based or even load based such as water loading.
A calculation is then used to derive HP
HP = torque x rpms / 5252
So for the essence of correctness, any HP output used as reference to our cars should be stated as BHP. If it's at the flywheel it should be stated as such, although it is often assumed BHP means flywheel. This is an inaccurate common belief. If you are referring to power at the wheels then it should rightly be reffered to as rwbhp. As it is HP dervied from measuring torque via a brake device with the reading taken from the rear wheels of the car.

Admittidly, it then gets confusing from here on, with things such as SAE Net. This is a 'standard' set by the Society of Automotive Engineers. It has nothing to do with the calculation used to measure HP, so all readings will still be displayed as BHP. What it does do is outline exactly HOW and where the reading should be taken. These include engine accessories, ambiant temps, humidity, altitude and so on.

hmm well i just dont want to choke down my LSX 90/90 setup. and we did some playing around on the dyno and my volant is REALLY choking down my CFM. we switched to regualar lid, didnt changte ANYTHING else and gain 6hp. and that was on a LS1 manifold! (not LSX)
so i want to get rid of my volant and i figured why hold back, just go for the 85mm setup
ok heres what i want...
http://www.texas-speed.com/item_deta...ProductID=1151
specific question #1: do i need a jumper/ adapter thing? if so where do i get one?
specific question #2: will this mess with my tune? or make it difficult to tune?
specific question #3: whats required in converting to speed density? what parts? is there a kit? explain what SD is and how is different/better.
