i have decided to get a 75mm acufabtb & c&l plenum combo 410 gears and a chip that sound like a good use of 1000 dollars

that question will draw a lot of responses. some people are in favor of it, while others have bought the MAF and not had it do a thing for their car. seeing as how you have a 2003, and its got the 80 or 85mm MAF, i don't really know if it would be worth it..you can get a dyno tune and i think it would give the same results

no prob. honestly i was pretty set on the C & L 85mm MAF but i've seen a lot of posts recently about them so I am re-thinking my decision. Plus i was talking with the guys at JBA and they aren't too hot on it. Their reasoning, which is shared by a lot of guys around here, is that you already have a good MAF from the factory.

How do you plan to correct your speedo with an automatic? You will need either a Hypertech(~$300) or a custom chip (~$215).

programer or chip.

Do not get he Hypertech it sucks my moms stang went slower with the power tune it ran 13.9 with the tune and 13.7 with out. Granitelli has come out with a new programer that is very adjustable and they will also send you customized tunes via email for 1 year after you purchase it a little more expensive but worth the extra money if you plan to make alot of mods through out a year because a chip has to be sent back and retuned or redyno tuned. Anyways good luck.
