Default Mass air conversion

So im finally going Mass air, getting rid of the old, outdated Vane air crap. It will work great with the 65MM throttlebody that was installed recently. just one of many steps closer to POWA, and efficiency.

Not in my experience, at least with DSM's, everyone with MAF wants SD.

GM guys seem to end up going speed density and and old foxbody speed density guys go to MAF setups... all of the toyota guys(supra and MR2) drop their MAFs and go speed density with a VPC

basically no one is happy with what they have... kind of like everyone bitching about not having pop up headlights anymore.... even tho everyone swaps flush mounts into cars with them lol

I got speed density and want to stay speed density.... although the GM speed density is much more capable than what I have.
