hellcat MAF in 6.4L powerwagon

[michael harpe]

anyone done any research about this? the autoparts guy said this would be a good oem mod. google search didnt reveal anything on this. thoughts?

Are you talking about the mass airflow sensor, or something else? If it is just the sensor I'm not sure how it would be considered a "mod".

thats what he told the wife

What auto parts store are we talking about? Autozone? LOL

I agree there shouldn't be any benefit

 

[michael harpe]

oreillys lol

They must keep em next to the stick on hood scoops and fake vents too.

I actually looked them up, they look pretty similar in design too. I thought maybe less restriction or something but nope.

Leave the MAF sensor alone, unless U like trouble codes, just saying... And it will not improve a thing, not even (1) HP, LOL...

 

[michael harpe]

i know that lol. just figured i get the internets comments on it lol.

MAF... no.

But a MAP sensor can be a great help!!

For instance, on my old evo the stock MAP sensor was something like 2bar.. but when i slapped on a big snail, and had everything set up to run 45Psi i needed more MAP sensor, because it would max out. so you can only adjust fueling/timing etc so much.

Slapped in a 4bar MAP sensor, and that gave me a broader reference to be able to adjust everything else.

I think these trucks only run on a MAF sensor though. Unless you have a Diesel. They probably have a MAP sensor. lol.

i dont know.i alreadyhave the $70 fuel cost for regular. dont even want to think about 91 octane lol. and after breaking in 53k miles i think my mpg went up finally

I eat it and run plus. It makes mine run a lot better. Its running me 47.00 from a half a tank. I know the pain with filling them up.

Thats funny you say that. I have been driving mine for over 5 years now. Bought it brand new. Just crested 50k miles, and my last few tanks have been reading over 15 mpg. I dont think I have ever seen it much over 12.5-13. Very odd. Although i havnt been driving like such a ******** lately bahahahahah. Im sure that has something to do with it.

ive got a rough country 4.5" lift on top of the factory pw lift, 37" m/t on 20" wheels and octane front and rear bumpers. i was getting 14mpg if i was lucky on the highway in south GA. i now live in middle TN and saw 16mpg on the display. i stay around 15mpg now. dont know what happened, but holy **** im happy lol.

Hee hee, yep, I run 89 in MY 19. Heck, all the gas for mowers, watever I buy 89 Octane. My Friggin STIHL Chain Saw recommended octane is 89, LMAO...

I’ve never had an issue running unleaded in small engines. Everyone wants to buy non ethanol gas for em. I just use stabil and I’ve never had an issue.
