Default Did some runs with and w/o grannatelli MAF sensor

I did some before and after runs on my g-tech pro comp meter with and without the granatelli maf sensor.Before I got the g-tech I could not really tell if the granatelli really made a difference or not.Tonight on my way to the woodlands I made several runs before and after.With the stock sensor my truck ran a 15.36 at 88 MPH.I pulled into a parking lot and put the granatelli in and then I did another run at the same stop light as before.This time it ran a 15.25 at 89MPH.I had hard time beleiveing that it dropped the times a whole tenth so I put the stock maf sensor back in and did it again.
Stock sensor:
60ft. 2.31
1/8mile 9.86 at 71
1/4mile at 15.38 at 88

I then put the granatelli back in again and went to the same light again and made 1 more run.
Granatelli maf sensor
60ft. 2.268
1/8mile 9.72 at 73MPH
1/4mile 15.26 at 89MPH
Sorry this is so long but I did not beleive that the granatelli made any difference at all so I did some runs and both times it helped my times out a little.I did a total of 4 runs,2 on the stock MAF sensor and 2 on the granatelli MAF sensor. I just wanted to share this with yall.
Later guys

vortec350, im just curious why you dont go with long tube headers and dual 2.5" pipe. You would get really good gains with them over the shortys and stock crosover pipes. Arent the crosover pipes like 2.25", and not manderel bent, making them like 2" pipe?

I am thinking about some thorleys headers,they are 500.00 for the ceramic coated and that is what I am goin to get.I am just worried that it will lose lowend torque with the longtubes.What have experienced?
