Anyone using this? What does it do besides dialing in different injectors w/o having to send the maf back? Does it help performance? You can adjust idle and high spd. Anyone have any info??

From what I understand, it manipulates the output reading of your MAF so you can adjust accordingly. I think it would be a great tuning tool. Aftermarket MAF's hardly ever read perfectly, (read reviews secton) and the MAF readings are an issue so much, plus if you changed injectors, and you have a pro-m, you wouldn't have to send it back for a reprogram.

I have it on mine. Got a C&L calibrated for 24 lb injectors with 24 lb injectors installed on the car. The car ran lean on wot. With this I could adjust the fuel mixture a bit more rich. It does manipulate the reading of the MAF.
Doesn't do anything really for performance. But, yea...it's a good tuning tool.

with my optimizer I have went from all stock to aluminum heads and a blower with 3 different sizes of injectors and all I had to do is dail it in. I am thinking of swaping injectors again. I have had good luck with mine I really don't know why you would want anything else. It has saved me hundreds in Maff re-calibrations. Plus you can tune in your idle which solves a lot of problems.

If playing with the voltage on it has an effect on the a/f ratio, how can it not have an effect on performance? I think i'm gonna go for it, because those expensive tuning devices are not an option and as long as I can potentially help my idle and wot a/f, thats more than enough for me. Any other suggestions/comments?

Like I said before, it is a tuning tool, and we all know tuning equals power, especailly on computer controlled cars. Changing injectors is like changing the jets on a carb, and then on a carb you also have to adjust the main and idle adjusting screws ( I know very little about carbs, sorry) to get the proper mixture, I know that. The more I think about it, I might want to get one of these MAF adjusters.

I have one and have yet to install it. Definitly worth it to buy! Especially if you already have a couple hudred wrapped up into an aftermarket mass air meter and want to swap injectors. OR if you have a blown application...
