Thats cool.. will see how it goes from there, the motor is just now geting built so it'll be little while before we get to play with it.. ETP said it would be 4 to 6 week wait on the heads

Do not waste your time on a speed density tune. Install the MAF and get the truck tuned, you will get a better calibration from it anyhow. I still do not understand why someone would eliminate a calibrated piece of equipment in favor of a speed density tune anyhow. There are NO performance gains to be had in N/A form by doing a S/D tune.

The MAF sensor itself is not what maxes out, the calibration only accepts 512g/sec maximum.

When you are tuning, the maximum flow rate that you can input is 512 grams/sec of airflow regaurdless of the size of your MAF.
