Mass Air Sensor upgrade

Howdy all- What's the performance advantage to upgrading the stock mass air sensor?

thanks

HIya Dutch,I stole this from granatelli



Most stock Ford and GM mass airflow sensors are 65-70mm in inside diameter. The Granatelli mass airflow sensors are 81mm-90mm, featuring 47% more airflow capacity than the stock sensor. The advanced, active-electronic module packaged within the sensor provides improved control of injector timing and ignition timing.

Typical horsepower gains are 10-15 horsepower at the rear wheels

Typically, from 2000 rpm throughout the entire power band. Towing, passing power, and throttle response are significantly improved<!--StartFragment --> <TR><TD height="64" valign="top" bgcolor="#eaeaea" align="center"></TD><TD height="64" valign="top" bgcolor="#eaeaea" align="center">

While we do not sell our mass airflow sensors as mileage improving devices, it typically requires less throttle angle to achieve the same speed. Therefore, you will see an increase in mileage if you maintain a calm driving style. However, if you drive aggressively nothing can improve mileage.
wow there is their two cents

WoW! 81-90mm, I'm not looking to make a "hotrod" here -just curious as to the pros/cons of say a 70 or 75mm- I was sniffing around Pro-M, I think it was to get an idea. Would an upgrade in mm's to say 75 throw the rest of the sensors out of whack? I also don remember who./which/ post but it said Granatelli was problematic.
