Heres a new one: How about if, when I change the injectors I just 
make the new MAF bypass tube exactly the same ratio change as the 
injectors ratio change? I mean stock injectors were 22#, new 
injectors are 28#  so I add inlet area to the MAF that is 28/22 
larger than the original!  NO ECM CHANGES!  did I hit on something 
here? at idle the car would see  less airflow than stock , and 
provide a reduced inj pulse.. which is correct cause the injectors 
are exactly proportionally sized larger.  huh.


oh oh.. I just screwed every MAF chip maker out of money.
