Venom MAF? Worth it or not.

I was going through the parts at nopi.com and I came across a Venom Air Mass Sensor. Is it worth the $418.74? I don't know what the gains would be if any? Maybe this needs to be used in conjunction with other Venom products.

Anybody know?

I doubt it would do much at all. The stock MAF is already plenty big and the 4th gen VQ compensates for the extra incoming air from a intake and/or SC. I'd save that $500 and put it towards a higher stall torque converter and valvebody upgrade.

That's what I figured.

I wasn't really serious about buying it but I've never heard of anyone swapping their MAF for a "high performance" one. I couldn't see the benefit either.
