Anyone had any luck with the MAF mod?

Like the title says... Anyone had any luck with the MAF mod done on a 4.0L SOHC? I was looking around at John's cardomain and was thinking about doing this, but wanted to know if anyone has had any luck or problems with it and if there was a gain, or what..

big warning saying 4.0's dont like it that much, no harm to try as long as your have a spare to fall back on, im going to go to the junkyard and try and pocket one and give it a whirl, maybe tommorrow will be a good day for that

I tried it on my 2003 4.0 SOHC a few years ago. Didn't notice a significant power increase but the idle quality went to hell, so I returned it to stock. Be forewarned - you'll need another MAF sensor in order to go back because the mod to the sensor is not reversible.

Some with 3.0's have reported better results.

You should rescale your maf table if you do this.
