Ok...this is a good start- Maybe a little bit about what your goals are...You want a powerful towing rig...or a street machine??


The more info you can give the tech wizards...the better crafted your answer will be...

Here is the link to the URD MAF, this can describe it better than I haha. It is well-spoken of round these parts. Good thing about this device is that if you do get that cold air intake, this unit will help you get all you can from it.
