Both from what I hear work, but .. I would recommend going with
a new Bosch MAF sensor. Ive heard ups & downs with both the
Granatelli and Microtech units.
I got a new Bosch MAF a few months ago for about $315.
Retain stock appearance and be fail-safe with the Bosch!

i just got the grannelli MAF for xmass for only 250$ from jdperformance, it was 20$ off sale but the price was only 280$ and i didnt have to pay shipping for the MAF.... the maf had free shipping. u'd have to pay 11$ handling at summit/jegs so its really 310$.
the wells/grannelli have no hot wire... that makes the bosh maf very sensitive to shock etc... that platnum wire is weak and u have to be careful, the wells/grannelli take this into consideration with the thick film... so theres no hot wire. this makes them more durable and the new electronics are suppose to give u more accurate and faster readings. not to mention the interior cross sectional area is larger and flows more. just look a couple threads up it goes into this with great detail.
big plus for the granelli is that its adjustable.
