Give scenarios for both MAF and SD please. What mods can be done without having to get a chip. I want reliability and no surging idle or funny stuff.

I'm running my stock chip still with the mods in my signature. About as radical as you can get without going to a supercharger.

Idle does surge a little bit, but not a nuisance.

Sparks a flyin'.
