    I didn't know how important air intake design was

    I had some strange things going on with the MAF settings and the fix was surprisingly simple and effective. You may have similar problems with your modified, fuel injected car and not even know it. Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wse7neJIB0Q

    Yeah, that is one of the most important things when still running a MAF sensor.

    In the 3800 crowd some guys would remove the screen on the throttle body (maf was inside the tb before the blade) thinking it was a restriction and ended up skewing the readings and making things worse. The choppy air over the MAF was something they never thought about untill it pointed out to them.

    Same with guys that have card style mafs that would put them in a 4in intake tube instead of the stock 3in, now the numbers are incorrect and need to be fixed alot because the tube size and airflow over the sensor is so different.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
