Thumbs up Just installed FIPK on 95 4.9

I just installed a FIPK on my truck.Noticed an improvement instantly.Really seemed to help the lower RPMs.
The only mistake I made was to not shop around,and paid $230 for it.Then I found a website that had it for $160
www.re-racing.com
OK Now I'm thinking SUPERCHIP.So tell me how and why it works.And how well it works.And what should i expect to pay?

Try this kink,use the product search and you can get a part number and a price there. http://knfilters.performanceproducts.com/
Then go back to the other link I gave and use thepart # to compare prices

I am not exactly sure if the 300 ever got Mass Air, Next to the air box, on the intake air pipe there would be a sensor with some wires on it. It is the entire diameter of the hose. There is another guy on here with a 1995 F-150 also has the 300 and his does not have Mass air, it is speed density.

California 300s got MAF and SEFI in '95, the rest of them got MAF in '96, the last year of production. All earlier models are S/D with MFI

Thanks all.
My truck was originally sold in CA. so i am guessing that it does have Mass Air Flow....but I will check it using the advise I got from you.
