Thread: MAF sensor

  1. #1

    MAF sensor

    I have a pretty built 6.0l that is supercharged and has all the bells and whistles and I just had to upgrade injectors for the 3rd time to 100lb/hr and my mass air flow sensor is maxing out and I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions to what sensor to use? Thanks

    Pigtail with ls3 MAF. Put it in the biggest tube that will fit under your hood.

    Not sure what that means but a MAF doesn't read pressure, it reads air density which is equated to airflow. The Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor (MAP) measures pressure and yes, the stock value is limited to a tad over 1 Bar. You can tune low boost applications with a single bar map/OS, but 2-3 bar does provide increased granularity.
