Is there any reason why a larger MAF is needed for Stage 3 at high altitude?

Default Do you have an open element filter as well?

FWIW, you can go 83mm with bluetops/greentops. Many have done it. I run similar sized injectors with 83mm MAF.

Open element filter would lower airflow readings.

We've discussed this all before, man. I must just not be following what you're saying so I apologize.

Default ^^^^^^^^ IMO: Low blow

I hope I am not reading this right or something.

Default Turn up the boost to get some good power/airflow?

There are others at elevation with bigger maf/injectors.

Default Yes..EVO. I'm not explained this very well- sorry...

What good is bigger fueling without the airflow to match it?

Default Are you at 20,000 feet or something?

I've seen cars at a few thousand feet still making good power/airflow. I can't explain what's going on with your car, but I'd still keep the bigger maf/injectors.

stage3=more boost=more air=need bigger MAF for scaling=more hp if injectors can flow
