Nothing is wrong with the oem sensor just the location I had it in. I had to modify my volant intake to use with the magnacharger. I had my sensor to close to the throttle body, I have a much better setup now.Dead link.....
Whats wrong with your OEM MAF?
If memory serves me right you can use the larger MAF from the 5th Gen Camaros, but you need to get the pigtail adapter.
Good info! Yeah the cam I order is suppose to work really well with a supercharger. I retained my volant intake because I like the look better and my stock setup is buried in my storage unit some where. lolThe Forced-Induction "Maggie" resources and tuners that have discussed similar concepts with have suggested that intake components are not the limitations, nor will they add benefits, all limitations are on the output "Exhaust" flow characteristics.
IE: TB, CAI, Intake Manifold, Intake Valves, .....
Do not help to improve flow
IE: The exhaust side of CAM, Exhaust Valves, Heads, Headers, Exhaust...
Are what limits flow in our engines/configurations
Explained to me to think of this like a chain of links, only as strong as weakest, and weakest is the exhaust flow characteristics in our systems.
So, for our LH8/9 5.3L, we want to focus on improving exhaust flow components.
Even to the degree that if you could get the Exhaust side to flow better than Intake side
then the actual next weakest link is the Fuel system capacity, not the flow characteristics of the intake side of the system. The fuel pump and injectors begin to not provide enough fuel relative to the amount of air that can be presented to the cylinders.
For example discussed with Magnusen the CAI and they stated they actually did side by side or swap in/out comparisons and improvements were not measurable.
Similarly, Throttle Bodies while providing a perception of faster response do not improve actual HP/TQ performance. Again, have been told from resources that do this performance add-ons stuff day in and day out and are not in the business of selling the applicable components. In fact if they recommend a product and results do not support the recommendations then they look bad.
