If you have Mass air flow, GO FOR IT. With MAF, the engine provides fuel based on how much air is coming into the engine. Since the cam will allow more "flow", the sensor will pick this up, and compensate for it. However, i would try and find a performance MAF sensor before you install this cam. If you find one, you can be assured that even if the stock MAF sensor can't handle it, your aftermarket one will. Good luck!!

he said it was a 90, so no MAF for him. however, that cam should be mild enough to work with the stock speed density system. just make sure to use new lifters and springs when you throw that thing in.
