    Default MAF or MAFless tunes? ve ssv 2007

    hey everyone

    im about to start buying some mods- vcm otr- 4-1 pacemaker headers- hi flow cats

    now im wondering, do i go the MAF or MAFless tune, to be honest, i dont know much about tunes.

    give some pros and cons about both, by the way im not looking to take my car to the track or to flog the shit out of it, so that extra 10kw with the MAFless doesnt bother me.

    thanks alot, any help with tunes with be great

    Mafless is illegal, maf isn't, the end.besides a little more power that's the other main difference ( from what I've read on here so far)

    with more basic (exhaust, airbox/OTR) mods, a GOOD tuner wont see a difference between MAF and MAFless (other than the legality) in power or throttle response!
    once you start playing with cams & internals though the MAFless is the way to go!

    Actually in Victoria at least, BOTH are illegal and both will void any GM Drivetrain warranty everywhere. I'd suspect that it stands for most/all other states too. That said - I'd go cam & mafless myself. I'm looking into it for the E3 right now

    dunno if that helps any

    "MAFless tunes are illegal on a MAF car unless you have an engineers certificate in N.S.W. or Modification plate in Q.L.D. Reason being as it alters apparently the emissions of the car as it's to do with airflow etc"

    Just some heads up over infringements etc
