I was wondering the same thing as the OP. Reason being I picked up some suspension parts from a guy a week ago and we were just BSing about stangs. He said if you get a CAI you should really get an aftermarket MAF(even for #19) because the way the CAI turns. We were talking about fendermount at this time. Is he crazy or is he on to something? He also said stay away from the C&L because its a "Mickey Mouse" way of doing a MAF. What do you guys think?
