Default Which MAF?

Well, I'm starting to wrap up my build, all I really have left to buy is fuel and MAF. I dont feel like completely changing my whole draw thru setup from my previous setup, so I think I'm going to stay draw thru. I used to run a LMAF, but sold that because I know it wouldnt be enough for my current build. I want a MAF that can support upwards of 600-700rwhp for my draw thru setup. I was originally looking at the SCT BA3000? Any comments/suggestions?

What exactly has to be completely changed? All I see is the placement of the maf. I'd go with this in a blowthrough setup. http://www.vmptuning.com/store/index...=234&parent=99. I just got back from getting my car tuned yesterday and they said I had plenty of room left in that maf setup.

If you can't be talked into blowthrough I have seen the whippled and kb'd lightning guys running the sct ba3000 and 5000 mafs aswell in drawthrough. What do the guys that are gonna be doing the tuning on the car suggest you use? Injected engineering suggested I went with a slot style blowthrough so thats what I did.

need to redo the bung that was put into my powerpipe, redo the discharge tube because of the new housing that would be put into their, and my tuner said that tuning blow thru is more accurate, but definitely more time consuming/more difficult

I'm almost dead set on staying draw thru, all i would need is the new maf and wala, done

I've saw lots of guys on svtp using the ba3000 in the lightning section, I don't see any reason it wouldn't work for you too.

I still say it's worth it to go blow thru
