Default Maf

I recently installed a procharger on my car. I am running 8lbs of boost and was told that I need a maf extender, because my stock maf is not big enough. This part is $185 would it just be better for me to get a cobra maf or is that more expensive?

Youll need a dyno-tune regardless so go buy a new MAF sensor.

Yeah I know I need to have it tuned on the dyno, but I was just wondering if I should just buy the maf extender he was talking about or something like 90mm MAf.

Personally, id purchase a MAF instead of the extender. youll probably peg your current one anyways.

Cool, I guess I will see if Randy can help out with this. Unless the cobra MAF will not work.

Get the lightening maf because it will be alot eaiser for your tuner to tune...

You don't need a extender, just remove the maf wires from the harness inside the plastic loom to give you a foot to reach the maf...

I talked to Randy today and he told me that the lightening and the cobra would work so I got a cobra MAF off of a guy for $75. He said it is a Cobra MAF Mafia.
