Default 90mm MAF?

Is there anybody who makes a 90mm MAF for our cars? Been looking for one and all I can find is the Lightning one and from everything I've read that won't work for our cars. I am putting the Anderson PMS in the car, don't know if that would allow me to run the Lightning MAF or not... This is the only piece holding me up from finishing my build right now :\

theres lots of people that run the 90mm lightning maf..specially people who are runnin blowers. i dont think its just a plug and play, but it works with a tune also. im sure some of the members running them will chime in tho

Yes, you can run the LMAF, but you are most definitely going to need to tune it. You may also need an adapter to use it, depending on the situation. I was going to buy one and just rewire it myself...but opted to go with a different MAF in the end.

I have a 95mm mass air meter, bought it from anderson ford, its a professional mass air systems velocity meter. if you need to have it calibrated after, you can send it back and they will recalibrate it for $100.

PMS doesn't recommend using the LMAF. Instead they suggest using a 'calibrated' MAF meter for you your injector/ecu setup.... same as if you weren't doing any tuning at all.

Thanks guys, all the replies are much appreciated. So since I now know Anderson makes MAF's, I'll probably go with theirs, just one problem, I can't find a 90mm PMS MAF :\ Where is the 90mm on their website? Thanks again guys

Actually, NVM I think I just found it p/n PKLOADIFK.. So I need to purchase a 90mm lightning MAF for this I'm assuming, it'll work alright with the PMS ECU controller?

you shouldnt need the loadIO when using the pms, anderson ford sells mass airs, they do not make them. there is another company that is relatively new called abbeco performance, their mass air meters are unique because if you change injector size, you can download the calibration files and just hook your meter to the computer and load it in.
