Being that the diesel revs 1/2 as high a gasser but also uses 7X the amount of air I don't see the improvement being worth the detriment, i.e. larger particles being sucked into your engine, and constantly having to clean the MAF sensor from accumulated dust.
My 92 5.0L mustang had a response as well...at high RPM.
I would use one for racing but not on my $5K option/investment.
