ok you might recall that I installed a bigger MAF claimed gains and most of you said no way. Well I replaced my injectors today with 30lb ford injectors, because my factory ones were having trouble with the increased pressure necessary because of the bigger MAF. So I, without thinking, decided that I could remove the rest of the restriction in the bigger MAF since the bigger injectors would make up for the air not being measured. Well they helped but I should have calibrated the fuel pressure with the new injectors before I modified the MAF any, thats the without thinking part. So now the car would only run lean so I figured I could extend the wires holding the MAF sensor resistors so that the resistors where in the middle of the MAF therefor measuring more airflow. Well I found out that the wires supporting the resistors won't solder. So I put the car back together with the resistors removed from the MAF and started it up. It idled at 2k rpm then went to 1k rpm after it warmed up a little. Heres the wierd part, it now pulls much stronger even till redline, I even had my bro in law ride along and he noticed the change as well. So basically I have no MAF but it is definately faster and doesn't go lean, in fact the O2 gauge reacts instantly where before there was a slight delay between flooring it and it going rich. Yes I know the O2 sensors aren't very accurate so get over it already. Anyway why the gain?
