Re: maf to speed density

the mas system measures the amount of air coming into the engine, among other things, and makes adjustments accordingly.
The speed density system measures manifold vaccuum in stead of incoming air.

The engine will perform about the same reguardless of which system you put on it, personnally, I'd stay with the mas system, it's easier to tune and more forgiving of mods.
you probably will need a custom chip as well
