What do you guys think about this product from MAC it comes complete with an 85mm mass air sensor i've heard in the past that intake systems made from chrome heat up easily, rpmoutlet.com has these for sale, and you can get them with an accufab throttle body and plenum as a packaged deal. It seems like a good deal to me, but would changing to that mass air from the stock cause idling problems. My friend had idling problems on his GT when he got a pro-m 80mm mass air.

Yeah, don't do the MAF upgrade (ck my 02's sig), but I do like the Accufab plenum and TB - definately pulls much better above 3K.
But this shouldn't be a first mod. You'd really need gears to take advantage of most mod motor mods. I don't know what you have now, but first things first, gears and exhaust. Midpipe in next for my 02...need...it...badly...!
MAFs are useless in most cases, especially these MAFs that use the existing electronics and simply trick the computer. My butt-o-meter tells me I have better throttle response with the OEM MAF.
