Proof that Descreening the maf works!!
i was at the track to day and ran 14.4@93 and then decided it was time to take the screens out of the maf. Next run......14.0@96
i picked up 4 tenths and 3 mph just from the descreening the maf
so anyone that hasnt done this mod just
DO IT!!!
i couldnt get over it

I did it and two months later and $250 less I had a new rescreen MAF back in the car. I don't know what happen because the car worked fine for weeks and then toasted MAF. It's way too expensive to attempt again.

Apparently Wells sells a aftermarket MAF for our cars that uses a different system than the hot wire system of the Bosch MAF and flows better as well (750CFM). I can't remember the Wells part number...does anyone else know it?

you can do totally different things on 2 runs so you can't say something from only one run.

De-screening the MAF is a risky thing. Probably not worth it. I guess I'm not one to talk since I've done it though. My MAF is still good and I've had no problems, but then again I haven't really had gains either. I had heard the horror stories like Irocker's and so have many others. I believe that the general consesus is that maybe taking the screens off will give you a bit more flow, but even if it does, it's not enough to justify the chance of a wrecked MAF.

Removing the screens is important. I found a 3-4 tenth gain as well, among other things, the air cleaner, where it sucks in air, etc..
Eventually, I ended up replacing runners, boring out my TB to 52MM, airfoil, and finally a vortech supercharger. Hoping for high 11s this April.
But I'm an advocate for ripping the screens out.. Even if you do break it, its like $100.00 for a new one at Autozone, which is pennies compared to other things..

I gotta throw the flag on this one guys, those gains are just too much. I'm not doubting your track times, or even that the de-screening the MAF gives some kind of improvement. But it certainly does not give 3-4 tenths alone. The must be other variables at play. Traction, human error, temperature, winds and the car's running condition all play a factor in track times. Variations in these can cause a 3-4 tenth difference between two track runs. Smokin87iroc pointed this out earlier. If you ran a consisnet average of 14.4 for 3 or 5 runs and then the same day in the same conditions de-screened your MAF and ran a consistent average of 14.0 for 3 or 5 runs, that would be some significant evidence

I very seriously doubt those kind of gains too. I would probably just put the explanition to driving ability. I have heard people say the stock will flow fine for a 350 up to like 5k. Removing the screen will definatly result in a gain but more like 3-4 hp not tenths in the 1/4. You would have to gain like 30hp to get a gain in the 1/4 like that.

If you had dyno pulls then you would have PROOF. What you have is one run that is better than others. I would guess it is because you let your car cool off (as you removed the screens). Personaly I wouldnt touch this mod with a 10 foot pole. I know too many people who found themselves $300 poorer, and just as slow in the long run.

you guys must have not done something correctly when descreening the MAF my buddy was attempting to help me take mine ou when he slippedand tossed the MAF across the room bouncing off of everything (thank *** we worked in a parts store) but I stuck it on after completely descreening and attempting to cut out some of the fins (didnt have a file or patience to finish off) and put it back, that was almost 2 years ago, and Ive had the MAF off and on several times doing other work, and it still worksgreat, even ran it thrugh the mohave desert while on vacation last summer, not one problem ever yet knock on wood!!

On a flow bench with the screens removed you gain something like 144cfm.

To all you guys descreening your maf for more cfm you also have to take this into account. You can put the biggest maf on your car that you can find but the problem is that the computer has a limit of only reading 255 grams per second of air. A stock engine will probably never get that far but if you starting to modify your engine this becomes more of an issue. The ONLY way around this is to convert to speed density. There is no way around this. Just my .02 worth.

I think that Wells MAF is a heated film type and the stockers are heated wire type.
I have had my screens out for over 2 years now with no problems, but no power was found either! I am also maxing this damn thing out with the new engine.

I've ran up to .3 to .5 difference in time in one night and that was just cause of a difference in launching. My MPH is usually pretty close but when I first started out my MPH got better and better each run.
I've heard that people with LT1's and some LS1's also have problems with the motor running to lean when you descreen the MAF. It makes sense, I mean, there is more air going into the motor than the computer knows about so I can see it causing this.
I choose not to descreen my MAF on my LT1 powered car for the chance that it could add power is less than that of the chance it could cause issues. I'm for more power in any way I can get it but not at the expense of it causing other issues or costing me money to get a new MAF or fix other things.
Just my $.02 though.

Hey Guys,
255 grams per second = about 540CFM limitation..
You can't up that in the prom?
That sounds a bit too low, especially for us who have superchagers that push around 1,000 CFM..
Then again, thats probably what the FMU is for.. -

Tough crowd here. You even have two back to back runs and people are calling you a liar.
The 3 MPH increase indicates that you increased HP. Similar 60 ft times with quicker et also indicate more HP.
Now my question, was the air box and filter also connected in each case?
BTW, with an auto, good tune, and good traction, you can repeat runs within 0.15 seconds easy!

To all of you who are paranoid about killing your MAF when you remove the screens...why?
The screens are there to keep out larger debris, but they are an obvious restriction. If your air filter setup is solid, what are you worried about? Too much air somehow killing the MAF?
The stock Bosch MAF setup flows too little air. I am going to descreen it and ditch the fins as well. Or maybe just switch to a Wells MAF.
Hopefully no one who has responsed to keep the MAF stock doesn't have a bigger TB bolted on, cause that just makes zero sense.
Keep in mind that it is still a restriction in the system and you won't see drastic improvement by modding it until you have the rest of the system enhanced enough to take advantage of it.

i'd like to see dyno runs. Track times do mean something but too many variables. I descreened my maf and it did nothing. I can't see gaining 3 tenths and 3 mph from removing the screens. What was the outside tempature and humidity of these runs comparing to your 14.4 run. Same track?

and even if he had gained 4 rwhp...that would net him probably .001 second in the quarter mile, NOT .4 seconds and 4 mph!!
And that unit flows better than ANY stock MAF, screens or no screens.
But hey, if you want to destroy an essential sensor that is worth as much as $300, go for it! you have my blessing.

To the question about upping the 255g/s limit in the PROM. The limit has nothing to do with the PROM or the MAF. 3rdgens have 8-bit computers. The highest number able to be stored in an 8-bit computer is 255. The computer stores numbers in binary or base two. We count in base ten. So when we count the digits go by ones, tens, hundereds and so on. In base two digits are different. It goes by ones, twos, fours, eights, sixteens and so on. Also only ones and zeros are stored. Example:
1 = 1
2 = 01
3 = 11
4 = 101
(I know binary reads right to left but for our purposes this is easier to understand.)
So imagine 8 slots to store ones and zeros....the highest number you can store is 11111111 ....which is 255.
1 = 1
2 = 01
3 = 11
4 = 101

FYI, you can somewhat make up for the lack of the MAF being able to read above 255 g/sec in the PROM. There is a table that will allow you to control the fuel past the maxing out point of the MAF. The "PE% change to fuel/air ratio vs. RPM" table will allow you to 'control' the fuel up to 6400 rpm. If you want to spin it any higher you, need SD or DFI.
EDIT: Just as a testimony, I looked up my MAF readings and I see 230 g/sec at 5500 rpm. I rarely took it that high with the LTR setup as it just doesn't make any power up there..... But I am going to be putting an LT1 manifold on it soon, so I will soon be forced into making use of the upper regions of that table.

Correct. As Matt87GTA pointed out, even though there is a limit you can do nothing about that doesn't mean you can't still drive with it maxed out. When the MAF reaches 255g/s your car doesn't stop or anything, it just loses reliable input from the MAF. It has to start using the tables in the PROM which as as Matt said can be altered to support this problem. Some guys with the miniram have talked about this for some time and maxing out their MAF really didn't pose the problems that were expected.

In my '96 T/A, totally stock down to the paper filter, I ran a best of 14.41 @ 97 MPH. After doing the mods I have in my sig. (and also running racing fule) I uppped that time to a 14.12 @ 99.56 MPH. I gained about two MPH out of doing a cutout and cold air kit. I'd say I was pretty consistent for one night I pulled 99.34 on every one of my runs although my times were off by a little bit depending on my launch. Still, I did a lot of things to gain that 2 MPH.
Plus. on a friends '97 SS he descreened his MAF and gained like 5 RWHP on the dyno. His motor is putting out like 450 HP though so it was needing to flow a lot of air into that motor when it was revving out to 6K or so.
It's just that with driver error and other conditions coming into play, there's no way to say that the MAF was the only thing that made the difference in the faster time is what I'm trying to say.

Not trying to flame the guy, just trying to get some answers out of him. If he could give all the details then maybe more people might believe him.
BTW, how much air does the MAF screen really restrict anyways? I mean, after 4,500 RPM on the L98's doesn't the manifold come into play as being the weakest link? I assuem that's why LPE and Arizona Speed and Marine have upgraded runners and such right?

Does this mean you're willing to pay for all damages from doing this mod?. <g>
While it might help in you application, by ne means mean it is a univerally good thing. Have you checked your AFR in other conditions?.
If you want to min the intake restrictions, then go to a MAP system and get rid if the darned thing properly.
You can get rid of the screens, and use several vanes to straightne the air without the restriction of the screens. Which is the way I run my car.
The 255 limit can be tons of air per second it's just the 255 that is the limit not what it represents (when the code is modified properly). ie my MAF system reads to 510 grams/second using a LT1 MAF and a Bailey Translator.

I'm not sure if I understand your 8 bit limit of 255 fully.. 8 bits
of all ones is 255 - this is true, but an 8 bit processor can address in theory up to 65,535 bytes, which can roughly
store values of 255 per byte of address length.
Now if the address space assigned for this variable is 1 Byte long, then thaty limit would be true (assuming the reading realisticly started at -127, and incremented to the possible storage length of 128. But that would be silly code, rather than a physical limitation.
It sounds more like GM addressed a byte to that variable, and reads/write directly to that. But who knows..

Personally descreening a maf isn't worth the core charge the old maf is worth when your descreened maf goes out and they won't except it as a core.

I think I understand your logic, but let me try to explain alittle more. The computer is constantly receiveing and reading information from the MAF when the car is running. In the computer there was one 8-bit address dedicated to the MAF. I don't beleive its feasible to have another address for "spill-over" although it would in theory work. Of course when GM made the thing, the car was so far from maxing the limit they probably didn't think of it. The LT1 computers solved this problem by going 16-bit. One dedicated address though was probably the only way to process the info fast enough.

I agree with you 100%, gm prolly only designed one register for that application.. Which I supose was not a "bad" idea at the time.
I sometimes wonder how tough it would be to completly replace the computer with a laptop and an interface card. I could probably write a program in a few days that monitors all sensors, and maintains them as the gm ECM does -- but I'm not enough of a hardware guy to design the board/adapter part of it..

Depends on the situation. I had a breathing problem. the 144 or so CFM I picked up could make all the difference in the world.
Not everyone, perhaps hardly anyone would get the same results, but its proven on a flowbench that the screens restrict airflow, from an allready useless MAF sensor..

I sometimes wonder how tough it would be to completly replace the computer with a laptop and an interface card. I could probably write a program in a few days that monitors all sensors, and maintains them as the gm ECM does -- but I'm not enough of a hardware guy to design the board/adapter part of it..
