The maf is not calibrated, the ecu is. When you put a "calibrated" maf on the car it just lies to the ecu lowering the maf transfer curve. That said, the maf you have uses a completely different curve. It will require tuning.

I will ask again what ecu are you using?

cars gonna run like crap with that maf it's tricking the computer into running way off for those 24s .

Is it a ford racing R block or is it a sportsman block with the 2 bolts mains ? The motor will make decent horse power right around what your original goal was the way it sits I'd think .

Send to pro m and have them calibrate it for the 24s .

A 95mm meter may be tough to fit tubing on, before you spend any money calibrating it make sure you have a plan to mount and plumb it. If this was an all out build i'd say do whatever it takes to make it work, but since you are using gt40 parts i'd do what's best to make it work spending the least possible, which may be to sell the meter and buy one already calibrated that bolts in.
Anderson power pipes are hundreds of dollars and i'm not so sure this setup would justify the cost.

Your on the right track, with a maf that large the low flow resolution will be grainy that may cause idle and low rpm cruise issues.. but you will have plenty of room to grow in the future.

They are nice. I initially ordered a BBK cai before ordering my MAF. Once I ordered the 80mm pro-m I found out how large it is and ordered the power pipe. Nice quality piece.
