Default Anyone using a 4 inch MAF and if so, did you notice any worthy difference?

Considering upgrading to an ls3 4 inch maf and custom 4 inch intake system for my truck but before i roll out the cash, figured i ask on here a few ?s

if so, hp and/or torque wise?
of course would help to know your motor and mods, etc if you dont mind.

don AKA Slowhawk who does all my tuning said there not worth it until you make around 600 horse That's once the stock 85mm MAF starts to act up.

I just did a 4-inch intake tube on my truck when I did the LSXRT and that's with my stock 85mm MAF

I did a 4" intake with the stock MAF. I did notice a bit more throttle response but not much SOTP. But I cant put my truck on a dyno to tell if there was a difference or not.
