Stock :) I've seen so many mixed results that I'm not sure an aftermarket MAF is even a good idea; especially on a almost non-modded engine as yours.

To be honest, I have used several different (Ford 80, ProM 77, ProM 80)MAF's and unless you're really going to increase the hp to where the stock MAF is unable to do the job (which is past the point of the typical bolt ons) stick with the stock unit. Aftermarket in this case does not always equal better. In fact alot of the time it is less than helpful and a waste of money better spent elsewhere. Your suspension looks tightened up but how are the wear parts like bushings etc? This and brake upgrades give the best bang for the buck IMHO for bolt on improvements.

Personally, I have a PRO M 80, and I love it, definitely felt a difference in power when I installed it, but then again, thats the butt dyno... :bonk:

Just remember that resetting the PCM may give you a little kick in the butt-dyno power for a little while too. It'll erase the adaptive table stuff for a bit. If you want to get reliable extra power, swap a 3.2 from an ATX in there or look at nitrous or other more expensive FI. GOtta pay to play. There have been alot of iffy results from aftermarket MAF's-- myself being one of them.

cams seem to be a great add on but you will nedd a LPM (AKA chip) I think cams are running 650, and lpm's about 200~, the cams are good for a bit over 20WHP I think... I THINK

Just my $0.2 but you might try a little flex hone action b/4 you lay out $300 for EH. Don't get me wrong I did it and they look great, but you might get similar results with considerably less expense!
