Question Abaco Performance 97MM MAF

As you all know, I just installed the 3.4L Whipple recently. I was talking to Bob during the install and looking at my intake set-up, and it seems that the stock 90MM MAF that I'm using is a restriction right now. Plus, at the higher boost levels the stock MAF, even extended, may prove to not be enough. I was flipping through MMFF and came across an advertisement for Abaco Performance Digital 97MM MAF's. I was wondering if anyone had heard anything about them or has an opinion on this subject???

I know that the 90mm housing may be too small, but running out of MAF with an extender?

I was under the impression that with an extender you could practicly go well beyond the 1000 hp threshold (I know its baised on counts but it should be relative to HP#'s).

I know the 2400's 2600's 2800's and 3000's are relitive to airflow but when they box a 2400 in a bigger housing and call it a 2600 and they box a 2800 in a bigger housing and make it a 3000 that tells me that MAF's are reliant on pressure to the sensor rather than sheer volume????????

(Hence why some maf's peg out with a 6#lower and some are fine, its all relitive to the size of the CAI tube) And explains why my MAF counts went down when I swapped to the 95mm Brute force tube with my stock electronics.

Why not keep the electronics and go with a bigger housing?

Better yet, since your the type of guy to get inventive why not go to MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure)?
