Does Dakota Digital box work with MAF cars?

Well I have a T-56 in the garage waiting to be put in but I'am not to sure what to do with the speedo problem, I have a cyberdine box but I didn't care much for it on my T-5 install, just wondering if anyone used this box with a MAF equiped car and if you had any luck with it?

From what I could gather, it will work on all 87+ firebirds and 89 or 90+ camaro's.
whichever years incorporated the vss technology. So, if you don't have a speedometer cable going to your dash, it should work fine.
...I hope it does, cause I just ordered one to go with my t56 swap

I believe one computer wants a 4000ppm signal and the other wants a 2000ppm signal. The dakota box can do either, so it simply a matter of figuring out which one is which. My guess is if the speedo is reading double or half what it should, you got the wrong one.
