MAF centerpost delete?
- Thread starter itshowmuch
- Start date
why? the 96'-98' (i think thats right) all have this extra material clogging up their MAF so why not either
A)remove the material so they can have a true 80mm MAF from the factory
B)swap sensor to a late model MAF stock piece that doesnt have the centerpost and is still 80mm
what would be the difference between cutting out your post and buying an aftermarket 80mm MAF that the post is removed from? all your doing is changing the body that the sensor sits in correct?

Not sure why the article is no longer on there, but as others have already said, best to leave it alone. If you happen to have a spare one laying around and you don't care if you trash it, then hey go ahead and play but anyone I've read about [I haven't tried and don't know anyone who has] who has done the post delete, ended up buying a new MAF.

i actually did this mod 6 yrs ago. and i was talking to a guy about it and he had never heard of it. so i was kind of confused to search the board and have nothing come up about it.
thanks for the find. im not sure where you looked on mustangworld to find that. i clicked every link i could find and it didnt get me there.

i already did this mod years and years ago. and i still have that same MAF on the car today.
as i remember it the tech was perfectly written. when you started it up you could hear a difference in the tone and there was a slight SOTP feeling. i was not able to get a dyno until a few mods later but i remember after working out the changes on the car that this mod was worth about 2-3hp in the end.

its not worth doing IF it doesnt hurt the cars performance. Its not a good idea. The stock mass air is not hindering power on a 96-98 car at all. THe exhaust, heads, intake and cams are!!!
