Question about a bigger MAF?!

What is the biggest size MAF we can run on a 4.0 SOHC with the stock programing? Would it help with performance any? Hurt any?

The truck has a K&N FIPK, and a cat back exhaust if those matter.

Thanks again,
-Jared

theres really no point to it unless you upgrade the ENTIRE intake tract. that means your new FIPK needs to go with a larger tube, throttle body needs to be bigger and you can either replace the plenum with a bigger opening or have your stock on bored out.

so unless you want to do that so you can lose some low-end torque, go ahead but it truly is not worth it.
