Our aluminum flange allows the 05+ sensor to be installed directly onto any size tube. The flange must be attached by welding. The radius on the flange is cut for 3.5", but welding will fill in any small gaps present when used on other tube sizes.
If you are not able to weld the flanges on take a look at our billet MAF housings.
In 2005 Ford Introduced a new style of mass-air sensor. It is commonly referred to "slot" or "card" style. This sensor has no housing, the stock airbox has a receptacle for the sensor.
We have found that the new sensor works very well in blow-through applications. Blow-through means that the mass air sensor is placed after the compressor (supercharged or turbocharged vehicles). The slot style MAF provides a very clean and consistent signal when used in blow-through. The slot style MAF can be placed in any size tube, from 3" to 4.5". We do not recommend going smaller than 2.75". In blow-through applications a 3" tube will result in the best signal, 3.5" tube will result in a marginal signal, and 4" will result in a very poor signal when used in blow-through. The car will need to be properly tuned for the new MAF sensor housing size.
When it comes to driveability and throttle response, blow through with an 05+ MAF is the best way to go. Having the MAF sensor far away from the engine makes the car harder to tune and hinders throttle response. In the past tuners used to recommend suck-through, but this has since changed with the introduction of the 05+ MAF. With blow-through the by-pass valve can now be vented to atmosphere, this will reduced air temps, because the air is no longer being re-circulated and re-heated.
Running the MAF sensor in blow through in a smaller tube than stock reduces range, to get this range back you can use a MAFIA extender or an VMP HPX slot style sensor. For very high power applications the VMP HPX sensor is recommended, as the MAFIA can only be used up to setting 3 on the 05+ MAF.

A VMP exclusive. Plug and play (no soldering) harness to use 05+ MAF slot-style sensor on all 96-04 Ford Vehicles. No more buying a MAFIA just because you don't want to cut and solder on your harness.
This harness *mates* to your existing 4-pin or 6-pin MAF connector, if you have an 01+ vehicle with a 6-pin harnes and built in IAT sensor, this harness will allow you to use the IAT built into the 05+ MAF (slot style, including HPX). If you have a 96-00 vehicle you will need to keep using the external IAT or buy our solder on harness instead and cut your existing wiring. For vehicles with a seperate MAF harness that uses a round 8-pin connector, we make another PnP harness for them that will allow the IAT to be used in the 05+ MAF, click here.
*05+ sensor and 96-04 style connector pictured but not included

The VMP brand HPX MAF sensor will support 600+RWHP in a 3" tube. Some other sensors will peg at 400-500RWHP when used in a 3in tube. Our sensor is recommended for high horsepower blow through applications. This is an 05+ Ford slot style MAF. This is a direct bolt in for 05+ Fords, older cars will require a flange and pigtail. Pigtails and adapter harnesses can be found here.
In larger housings this MAF sensor will support even more power. If more range is needed, an extender type device can be used.
| Tube Size | Est. HP range with HPX sensor |
| 3" | 300-750RWHP |
| 3.5" | 750-900RWHP |
| 4" | 1000+RWHP |
| 4.5" | 1000+RWHP |
We run the HPX MAF sensor in our 800+RWHP TVS Shelby GT500 to prevent the MAF sensor from pegging with certain CAI kits and MAF housings.
We recommend this MAF sensor for cars that are pegging the stock sensor in suck-through (Vortech kits above 10psi), or cars that are pegging the stock sensor in blow-through even with an extender type device (ie MAFIA), such as Procharger kits.
Tuning for this sensor is very easy, we can supply a MAF transfer function (or use BA5000 value files) just let us know what vehicle you are using it on or what units you need it in.
This sensor can be used on any vehicle or computer system that requires a 0-5v input, there is also a resistance based temperature sensor built into the MAF that can optionally be used or left disconnected. Click here for a wiring diagram for the 05+ slot style Ford MAF.
