It's for when someone with a fox who is trying to use a MAF that came originally on a SN95 carWhy is this adapter necessary?
Kurt
The adapter does not connect to the stock airbox. You use the stock rubber tube at the airbox side. The adapter flange screws to the 70mm maf. The adapter hose end goes to the stock rubber tube but you may need to trim the small end off of the stock tube. The other end of maf connects to the tube that hoes to the TB.

Why woud you not just get a MAF for a Fox car?
Kurt
You can take a flanged housing & mill off the flange.
Because they are dirt cheap and work fine with the a9L and plenty big for most combos
Ehhhh? I have heard conflicting stories on that. The tuners that I have spoken to generally say the same thing; and I admit that this explanation is above my understanding. The factory meters, no matter how cheap they are, are measuring with a micrometer, marking with a crayon, and cutting with an axe. They don't respond quickly, and don't measure very accurately; basically relying on compensations accounted for in the factory programming. A reasonably good meter is not hard to come by these days. I haven't checked ebay today, but I all but gave away my last Fox Pro-M on Stangnet. In this market, I would just buy the right meter the first time.

Let's not forget that many Ford meters are the industry examples and not the cheaply reproduced "performance pieces". Have you ever had an OEM meter go bad? What let up to that?
The resolution on Ford meters is pretty damned good. If the meter is used on the car that it was intended then the resolution is [very] good. When you start swapping meters and housings and elements, then things begin to change. The more changes, the farther you get from the base, the worse things get. A digital tune can marry virtually any MAF to a Mustang. Some folks like to take other [Mustang} MAF and swap them. It works in many cases and the benefit is usually a larger housing and more CFM. It doesn't mean that the meter is perfectly ranged for the EEC but that it can operate in similar tolerance.
The only MAF meters that truly [Suck] are ones where the transfer curve is very narrow or not rock solid repeatable, up and down the scale. Incorrectly sized housing and element for application would be my number 2. Bigger is not always better.
