My MAF isnt reading So my tuner did a Speed density tune and wqe left the MAF on the car...
Is there any advantage/disadvantage to this?
Would it be worth getting a larger MAF in the future and retuning the car to this? I will be getting a Fast 90/90 in the next couple of months.
My Z28 M6 with LS7 clutch , aluminum FW, 25%UDP, Moser 12 bolt, Pacesetter LT, ORY, Magnaflow catback, full suspension, K&N, lid, ported stock LS1 t/b, stock MAF, smooth bellows, CAI, made 432 rwhp and 414 rwtq @ 6250RPM... I am not 100% sure of these numbers, Ill post a thread tomorrow or so with the actual dyno graph and more information...
Anyways Ill make a thread on that very soon. But until then, is the question in first part of this thread worth it

Okay? can anyone help?
Also new problems as well,, sounds like somethings loose in the valvetrain, I hear a rattling with RPMs. DOnt wanna go WOT anymore, even though it was fun the first few times today after my tune was done
I may need to take off the valvecover and check! damnit!

Usually you want to replace the MAF with a smooth piece when you do a speed density tune. Leaving it on there isn't really going to hurt anything though. But you can get rid of a restriction by ditching it. Its really up to you....
And your numbers sound very normal for that combination

No I want a MAF. Im just asking if its better to run a MAF with a DD or not. I wanna retune with a MAF, I just didnt at the moment, since it was already at CMS and he said my MAF wasnt working and I wanted to drive out there that same day.
I dont run a maf on any of my daily drivers. If the tuner set it up for it to be sd, then just leave it. As long as it runs and drives fine then you are fine. Just leave it how it is.

because it is easier drivability, right?
below 1500 rpms, my car doesnt run properly, thats why Im asking.
To my understanding the MAF works to correct the VE table during varying conditions. But if your VE table is set up correctly, then you shouldn't have to worry about it. Theoretically your drivability should be better if your SD tune is correct. FWIW, I would ditch the MAF at this point (or at least store it in a safe place, lol)
