Question Which Maf better?

I want to finish my intake setup and have only the MAF left to do. However im not sure which is better to get

GRANATELLI MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR
OR
85mm ZO6 MAF conversion

both are offered at www.ls1speed.com under the induction setup. I need some feedback to find out which one people have had better outcomes from. If anyone has any feedback please let me know. If there is another one out there that I havent seen please feel free to let me know about that too.

Thanks to everyone in advance

Vinny

Re: Which Maf better?

I made the mistake of throwing money at the maf when I had my SS. If you want some solid advice (and many people will probably back me up on this), leave the maf alone. Unless you're pushing 600hp, I wouldn't waste your money. Take the $300 and start saving for headers or a cat-back. Either one of those is going to give you better gains than a maf. Just my 2cents.

Re: Which Maf better?

I've tried the SLP, PACE, GMAF and ported ends ... lost power and ET with everyone of them.

The PCM is tuned to the stock MAF ... anything else and the PCM is going to be out of tune. Sometimes it works because it may cause the PCM to lean out and you pick up a couple ponies. More often than not, it leans it out to far and KR kicks in and pulls timing.

Re: Which Maf better?

ya... as stated above, its generally held that the best MAF for an LS1 came on it from the factory..

Most tuners only tune on factory MAFs.. If that tells ya anything..
