Question mass air flow?

when swapping this out, is it required to change out the TB as well?
and what is the factory port on the mass airflow sensor?
and what would be a good aftermarket?
oh and this is for a 2001 ss

Why mess with it? It is good for 450-500 hp. Spend your money on better things.

You lose HP with a aftermarket mass air...you will make more power with a stock mass air and go get your car tuned and chip

i suggest going to FASTLANE for the tune and chip

Are these major mods?
I don't see a lid. A tune will definately help with heads and cam.
