help info needed on 85 MM MAF

[joen]

1999 SS, SLP LT's, SLP LM exhaust, LID, K&N filter, CAI, SLP 85 MM MAF, still using the stock hood ram air as well as the CAI, diablo tuner.

With the stock MAF I get nice response from the LTFT's and can tune them with the diablo.....when I put on the SLP 85 MM MAF, my fule trims go to values of + 20 and I'm not sure that the car is actually running that lean, so I put back the stock MAF and the trims go back to normal values +/- 1-2 range. What gives, anyone out there have a thought? Also, I have read a few places where it said to cut out the resitor in the 85 MM MAF, what does that do for you? I'm want to use the thing as it cost me $185. I see this with both the stock tune and the diablo performance tune.

Any help is appreciated........

I hate to say it, but your better off with the stock unit.
I just took an SLP MAF off my car and it feels better even before I have retuned it.
The output voltage on the SLP MAF is not very consistent, and is tough to tune.
The only way to use it would be to have a custom tune done, and that would likely cost more than the MAF itself....

Thanks
