    Can't remember or find it. What pulley size/WHP does your stock maf get maxxed out and require you to run a ls1/lq4 style maf or scaler?

    Current mods in sig (the bonnie... have to specify which 3800 sc car I have bc I'm nuts..) and its about to get a FSIC and plog/dp or headers and hopefully around a 3.0-3.2 pulley.

    Feel free to yell at me if I didn't search enough and was lazy.. :-P

    Like 11,500hz is the max.

    I don't think you need a larger maf with only going to a 3.2. But you'd have to run it and see if you are going to outlfow the MAF sensor.

    Hm Ok. Can you view that with tq? I know right now I'm hitting around 250-280 g/s on the maf with a dial on the torque app, I'll have to change it so i can see if i can see freq.

    I believe you can view it with the torque app, havent messed with it in ages though.

    You'll be fine on a stock MAF with the 3.2/3.0 any smaller and you'll want to start looking for other options.

    Running the mods in my sig, MAF still has some ceiling room

    Thanks! Also, theoretically speaking if someone had a ported gen 3 on a top swap and were to instal an fsic before any exhaust mods... Could they run smaller than a 3.4 or is that already pushing it? You know... Hypothetically.

    Aaron if your maf read to 11500 kHz (11500000 hz) it's magic
