Granatelli High Flow MAF Sensor

A few years ago I remember seeing some adds for a high flow MAF Sensor by Andy Granatelli....has anyone out there heard of it? Or better yet, has anyone tried one? Just looking for any little thing I might do to help my 5.3 breathe....short of a Magnacharger. No offense Left Coast 32, I'm saving the pennies and cutting out Starbucks to save for the forced induction.......

No offence taken!! Keep the stock MAF as it will flow more air then anything else out there. It is also calibrated to your application for the best overall drivability and performance.

The exception to the rule is a bigger factory MAF like the Ligenfelter 100mm that still uses a factory GM sensor inside their housing. The only time one of these is needed is when moving alot of CFM like a Big Engine on Boost.

Joe.....All the guys with the K&Ns should read your post. The stated increase from these sellers has always been misleading. Never understood how someone could tell the difference when 1 or 2 hp was the result.

P/P

They have to finish a few things before I can tune it for them. They will be in need of a Tech 2 for a case relearn for the new computer. HP Tuners wont do a first relearn, just a Tech 2 can.
