the right one what? mass air meter. that will still need a pcm tune. i was trying to get around that somehow because tuners are expensive. I just cant find one

YOu need a MAF calibrated to 24lb injectors......or if you have LOADS of time for learning a tuner like a twEEcer and a laptop....then you can go that route to figure everything out. From experience they are a bitch to learn it took me all winter to play with it to a pont whereI was comfortable baggin on it.

I could always use the 19's though if they will work. I was under the impression that upgraded injectors were needed with a hci swap. If I dont need to upgrade that would be great.

19s are good for about 280-300 at the wheels. The 300 mark is pushing their limits though.
