mass air uses the manifold absolute pressure sensor to determine airflow based on manifold pressure for correct a/f ratio. Mass air uses the barometric pressusre sensor(looks similar to map sensor on speed density) to determine air density and a mass air meter to determine airflow for correct a/f ratio.

waaat lol to technical for me bro,so is there any difrence in power,y do people change to mass air [ December 23, 2009, 07:23 PM: Message edited by: STANGBOY ]

mass air responds better to cam changes than speed density. Its more tuneable and the speed density is a good system for a stock car, but if you are going to modify it then convet to mass air

Fox's dont have a map sensor. airflow entering the engine is determined by the maf, tps, IAT and baro.
with speed density the car will not respond well to cam changes because the ecu is only expecting a certin amount of air entering the engine. your basically upgrading to a "smarter" ecu

will it be fine if i just put some headers,h=pipe,and mufflers

yes you can run exhaust....even heads/intake. I think it will start running like crap with a aggressive cam, Keep the stock one

The 'B' cam was designed to be compatible with SD. You can go fast with SD, but you reach a point after HCI and other bolt ons that you need the real-time air measurement of MAF. MAF systems measure the amount of air, SD systems calculate it by using other factors to tune the A/F curve to match.

hummm thats funny!then what would YOU call that little black sensor on the firewall that has a hose that goes to the intake.

EARLY FOXES WERE SPEED DENSITY BUT LATER WERE MASS AIR IF SPEED DENSITY SUCK SO MUCH WHY ARE ALL THE REALLY FAST AFTERMARKET FI COMPUTERS ALMOST ALL SPEED DENSITY
