I'll give that a try. I think it would be surprising if the MAF became unstable with so few miles on it.

The 4" aluminum tube is from a kit made by Spectre. I modified it slightly with a 45 degree bend to relocate the filter, but the inside has been smoothed with a die grinder and cartridge rolls in the vicinity of the weld. I think it meets all the criteria WRT the placement of the MAF.

The second test drive with the MAF disconnected predictably set a DTC and the CEL was on the entire time but the truck drove great at all speeds and conditions. The trip to the tuner is 33 miles. I was planning to drive there if the truck would cooperate. Is there a downside to driving it without the MAF connected?
