Unhappy upgraded MAF

I want to get a bigger MAF from JET they said it would need to be tuned to my vehical i have a edge programmer and was wondering if that would take care of the tuning on the new MAF? can anyone let me know edge would do the job or would i have to recalibrate my whole ECU

To recalibrate your MAF you need to tune it on a dyno or street tune it with a wideband o2. The edge will not give you the fine calibrations a custom tuner will. You can get it kinda close with the edge.

You need to take it to a good tuner.. Why do you want a bigger MAF? Are you installing a super charger or a huge overbore kit?

Ahhh so you will need a good tuner to dyno tune it anyway.
