go with your best judgement, i was just stating my opinion and I am not trying to start a big argument but the 75mm took away power below 3000 rpms and I have all your mods and then some. I think it is letting in too much air and choking it up, the air will not have as much velocity coming throught the bigger inlet.

first, i think dan wasnt saying that the MAF was garbage, it just messed with his low-end. We all need that low-end pull and we need to make the size adjustments to our specific needs and mods. Second, the hot ticket right now may not be the right one for u. And i think we all get the performance MAF too soon cuz we all know that the modding thing is addictive, so you should get them along with the heads or cam or something. But thats just my two cents.

well put stanger. Like I was saying, I am going to probably change my maf back to stock until i put my heads on, then I will need all of that extra air.

i would say 76mm maf... its going to give you more hp in the upper rpms... wich is where its most fun i would say, low end tourqe aint that important, when your racing you want to keep the R's up anyways right? .... if your planing on racing some 05 stangs i would suggest NOS!
