    Default Ls7 maf

    What is everyone using to run this combo on their roto fab intakes? I know I need a larger MAF housing and are u using two 3.5"-4" couplers for the increase in size?

    I think the couplers already on the rotofab will work fine. Im pretty sure that what I used

    Thanks Troy, going to see if I can locate a MAF tube before the tuning session tomorrow otherwise, I will wait until the nitrous goes on in a couple of weeks.

    IF it is that easy with the Rotofab, I might have to this.

    What are the gains of doing this mod?

    So for $85 I get a LS7 MAF? Something seems wrong with my math...

    its an LS3/LS7 card style maf. The maf itself isn't "larger" its just a different style maf.... The LS3/LS7 style maf fits in a larger housing 92mm or 102mm(4").

    Depending on your setup the gains are most attributed to the maf and its better tuning capabilities, not the larger housing.... unless your making high hp such as close to 500whp.
