im currently working on this 88 5.0 for a friend and it has no maf sensor seems to be running ok but doesn't have much power! any in put on this would be great thanks

 

Probably a speed density car. Before MAF was introduced in the mustang. 87 or 88 was the last year.

 

+1 the only 88 cars that had maf were the California cars.

 

i had an 88 before my 90 gt and it had a maf thats why im puzzled

 

As stated, only the 88 California cars have mass air, all non Cali cars have speed density.

 

where can i find the speed density sensor?

 

87 and 88 Mustangs Where speed density cars. Like others says The California 88 mustangs had Mass air.

What makes a difference between a SD and Mass air mustang was mostly the computer. The 88 you had might have been a Californina car or A Mass air swap car. My 87 had this swap from this company.

IST has converted more cars to Mass-Air than anyone!! Over 20,000 harnesses and computer kits sold to date, with no end in sight!! If you want to convert a Speed Density engine to a Mass-Air engine, IST’s LOW-COST conversion harness is the answer. All harnesses designed for speed density Mustang, Thunderbird, Cougar, Mark VII, Crown Victoria, Grand Marquis, & Town Car. Will not work on trucks, see truck conversion kits. Why convert to Mass-Air in the first place?? Simple, on a totally stock car engine, you will generally pick up 2 - 3 MPG, along with much crisper throttle response. On modified engines, it's mandatory, since the stock Speed Density computer has a very small "window" of adjustment built in to handle those changes. Even if you have modified your stock engine and it still seems to run OK, you still are not getting the maximum benefit from all those expensive aftermarket parts you put on. Plus, you have the added benefit of cleaner emissions, since most Speed Density systems tend to run on the rich side. This true OEM-style andquality kit allows you to custom tailor the harness to the exact length you need. Plus you'll find competent, friendly, and FREE technical support is provided for all of our products. We'll work with you to try and solve any problem you may encounter!!

 

thanks for the help guys
