Mass Air Sensor

I have a question regadring mass air mods. A friend told me to cut out the bar that goes across the inside of the sensor the smooth it out. He said this will increase HP. Has anyone heard of this? Does anyone know the pros and cons of this mod?

I have never heard of it.
Personally, I wouldn't even consider it.
If it is an effective way to increase power, why did Ford leave it there to begin with?

DONT DO THAT

if you want, you can slightly port and polish the throttle body, and half shaft the throttle plate. also, you want a hi-flow intake, like the MAC model.

But don't even think about messing with the MAF. it's pointless and you'll break it
