I put a Jet mass air flow sensor, K/N Air Intake, and Jet Performance programmer on my 05 Chevy Silverado. The mass air flow sensor was the last item added and could not tell a difference. I did use premium gasoline.

Sold the parts to a co worker and he started getting a pinging sound when accelerating. He was using the premium gas.

I've heard that it's not worth the $ and it causes problems with hand held tuners. But that's just what I heard.

Mas

Dallas64, did you ever get a MAS and install it? I have an AEM Brute force intake with flowmasters and I'm curious to know if the performance MAS is worth it.

This is off the path a bit, but I just ordered a new superchips programmer for the Sierra like i had with the goat..It said programmer would support headers,free flowing exhaust, air intake systems, but works best with stock MAF. On my 05 Silverado i had a Jet programmer, Jet TBS, and a Jet MAF and everything seemed to work fine. Just thought I'd throw that out. I know the MAF are not cheap.

NJSierra, I've read a few of your posts. I've been thinking of the next mod and wanted to get your or anyone else that reads this opinon on what you think should follow. I have a flowmaster super 44's, an AEM Brute Force intake and .... well I guess that's it. I'm thinking along the lines of a shifter since I have a M6 or some headers or a programmer. Whatcha think?
