Your going to be very very close if not peggin' it. The SCT MAF or Mafia will work fine, either one requires a custom tune.

I was all about getting a SCT MAF but im realizing it does the exact same thing as a MAFia and more for cheaper.

If you're planning on going bigger later the SCT is going to be more beneficial, but if you just want the 2.8 and ported eaton the MAFia will suffice.

How do you figure?

the MAFia @ full strengh has MORE headroom than any SCT MAF.

You can still put the MAFia on an SCT MAF. Also, from what I've read, I was under the impression that the SCT MAF was capable of handling more air effectively.

I thought the same thing until i saw this thread @ modularford.com

"Consider the fact that a MAFia allows for the stock Lightning/Cobra MAF (same MAF) to sample up to approx. the following:

MAFia on setting 2 (5.5v): 2293.86 kg/hr
MAFia on setting 3 (6v): 2947.66 kg/hr
(there's additional voltage settings, too, tho you won't need them)

The old style BA MAFs sample approx.:

BA2400: 2400 kg/hr
BA2800: 2800 kg/hr"

You need to datalog your car, for fuel pumps, MAF and injectors.

FYI I run a 2.76 with a stage 1.5 Eaton with a powerstack CAI and Magnaflow CB exhaust. I have a MAFia on my car and I'm getting ready to install a BAP. My car needed more fuel pump volume. My pumps are pegged at 5500RPMs.
