ok so i've heard,about this mas and maf-t conversion, now what exactly do those initials stand for, mas= mafs? mass air-flow sensor, just want to double check before changing parts, and realizing i messed up, i'd rather post and looklike an idiot.. lol was there ever a write up on this, i wanna kno what i'm getting involved in before i decided to do this, i've already ported my throttle body, and plenum, the ls1 parts sound like a good idea, any one out there kno, performance gains on an NA? or how to do this??? -thanks guys -matt

Mass AirFlow - Translater.
I put one on my N/A for a short time. You could really tell it was sucking in more air. You can also use this to help lean the car out when using larger injectors or to just sqeeze out that extra little bit of hp lost due to running rich stock. I wouldnt spend the money to buy one new if you plan to stay near stock, but if you plan to do a good amount of mods to your car, the added air cant hurt.
Any other questions about it, just post away.

The NA can benefit from this but it is very rarely used by the NA crowd. It will allow the engine to suck in more air because the honeycomb crap isnt all in there. I wouldnt put this on your car until you have some serious upgrades on it.

i have some upgrades, and i have those parts lying around, and i have more and more parts on the way weekly, now what exactly is needed, does the wiring match up? what type of wiring conversion is needed what wires go to waht? 94 rt, what did u have to do to install it? it doesn't look to me like it fit, which parts were used, no ECU problems with the different sensor? let me kno, i'll be doing this soon, thanks for the info.

There is a custom connector to use the GM MAF and our stock harness. The only other things needed are RPM wire attached to ECU, power and ground. If all settings are left at zeros, the car will run on the stock ECU settings. The adjustments work as any piggyback fuel controller would. Although they are not as precise as the SAFC. More rough like the ARC-II.

I'm not 100% sure if you need an adapter plate to fit the GM MAS to our intake pipe. It most likely will work with any aftermarket pipe that uses soft couplings that can bend around the GM Sensor. I have the SS DN Performance pipe, so it fit just fine.
The only thing you will notice is that if you leave it untuned, you may see a drop in mileage due to the extra fuel being dumped to accompany the extra airflow coming in.
