The mass air flow sensor is a small restriction but you can purchase bored out sensors that offer tons more cfm. The reason GM went back to the MAF sensor is because it is so much more accurate than speed density. MAF sensors actually measure the amount of air moving into the intake. Speed density uses a set of predetermined calculations based on input from the MAP sensor and VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor). So you can see where MAF would be more accurate.

The reason most people with F/I are not making as much power as you (and most people who know anything about cars) think, is becausethey aren't doing it right. They are adding big mouth runners without a bigger manifold or bigger throttle bodies. Not only does this defeat the purpose of more air flow but it can actually hurt performance by causing turbulence in the manifold. Hence the reason for port matching. Or they add a monster cam and forget about the price you pay in vacumn. Adding bigger fuel injectors without looking at the duty cycle or pulse width, then adding all that fuel without adding anymore air. Adding a whole bunch of major components and keeping the stock chip or not calibrating the existing chip. Everything you do on a F/I engine must compliment something else which is why it can become so expensive. It is like these guys who go out and buy Nitrous (in large amounts) or a turbo or super charger and bolt it on and go ***** out. Without fortifying their internals and then wonder why they throw a rod. I believe anyway you go is the best way to go as long as you are happy with it.

Good luck.
