before i go get my car tuned i figured id ask about my fuel system with my cams..when i was FI i upgraded my fuel pump, injectors, and mass air meter.. when i went back to n/a with cams, i left the fuel pump in but wen back to stock mass air and 19# injectors..

will it be beneficial for me to up to an 86mm mass air and 24# injectors or will my 19's work just fine with my cams..if they work fine ill just go with a new mass air for the 19's and save myself money

will i be able to get more out of my tune with a bigger mass air or is my stocker gonna do me just fine? i just dont want this set up starving for fuel.. thanks guys

I don't know the exact answer, but I'm pretty sure there are folks here with cammed/bolt on PI GTs making upwards of 300 rwhp on the stock fuel system and MAF. But I think that is about the limit.

Are you running cam only? What are you mods? Compression, ported heads.

you wont see any gains on a MAF or larger injectors. the only reason you would replace either is if yours are maxed out

The chart I have only goes down to 24 lb injectors and they max out for N/A set-up at 346 and 288 for supercharged.
