Looking for feedback on those using the Miller MAF.
Would like to get ride of the barn door air flow meter.
What are the "Pros" and "Cons" - is it worth the investment? Any thoughts on the Stock Miller Chip vs the Miller WAR Chip?
I have heard Miller is a little difficult to deal with. There are some good YouTube videos out there.
I have the M30B35 with an a Big Bore Throttle Body - SuperSprint Headers - DME is the 179 with DySilva chip.
Thanks
Rick

Re: Feedback from those using a Miller MAF.
Some people have used them early days with some success but there is zero support and a little hit or miss. I personally would not recommend using one

Re: Feedback from those using a Miller MAF.
From what I have seen and read previously, you need to cut some wires to use the Miller MAF. I don't really love the idea of cutting wires and making that kind of change in order to use an aftermarket item. Years from now I imagine it being a bit more difficult to diagnose problems if that kind of change has been made, and a bit more difficult to troubleshoot if you've introduced some additional variables that would be difficult to isolate and that most people wouldn't have or be discussing

Re: Feedback from those using a Miller MAF.
I've been on the fence as well to be honest.
Reconditioned AFM + conforti chip would cost more than the Miller MAF. So now I'm maybe leaning in that direction (towards Miller). But I already have injectors on their way too, so I'm also thinking I might finish one upgrade at time instead of trying to decide everything all at once.

Re: Feedback from those using a Miller MAF.
I bought the kit from VAC with the MAF and WAR chip for my M88. No complaints and feel like it's a little easier to live with than the barn door.
