I agree. Fooling the ECU and even the MAF sensor itself is still popular in 
the Mustang crowd. I had a C&L MAF on an '89 GT that had sampling tubes you 
could swap if the injector size was changed. Their immediate competition was 
another company that would actually adjust the sensor itself based on 
injector size. They both fooled the ECU and both had their share of 
problems. The common consensus was that altering the ECU program was the 
best. Just my experience.
