What are your current mods? The SCT Big air meter is nice.

Long tube headers and high flow cats will be your biggest gain. I would do that first, then a tune. then the maf, then a tb.

what year L do u have? Id say u still probaly got a ways to go before u actually need a new maf because of pegging it out. id say a 4lb interchangeable crank pulley and tune would be next best bang for buck.

unless you have a 99 0r 2000 you don't need a MAF until 400-450 RWHP. if its a 99 or 2000 get the one for a 01 up (90mm) it will flow enough for a stock block and supercharger combo. No sense in wasting money.... First get a lower pulley, then a tune, a good exhaust (longtubes, and hi-flow cats and cat back exhaust), have the tune checked..., if you want more power get a ported super chager and single blade TB, and have the tune checked, if needed then get a MAF, SCT is my pick if you need one after the above mods are done.
