MAF translater

I saw one of this on an 87 GN today, he was running a 93-up MAF on it, hooked to that boxe...what does that do? and would it work on our MAF cars?

There are two of them. One allows for minor fueling changes, and the other timing and fuel changes. A special chip allows reading to 512 grams/sec., so you have full resolution of tuning. Another item is being able to run a LT1 or LS1 MAF.

Won't work on the v8 MAF FBodies

BTW, I run one on my 87 GN and love it..

This month's car craft said Granatelli had a conversion to let you use an oversize ford maf on a tpi car, but said they needed custom conversion tables & they only liked doing them in-house.

Would it be that hard to modify a tpi chip to do the same as the gn chip does & read the higher airflow?
