BBMAF Solution for A33B

I've searched and only find info on 4th gens and 5.5 gens or FI 5.0's.

I can get a 93 J30 MAF for $50. Would it be worth it in a A33B. Also how do they wire up? Or do I just use the stock A33B unit and pulg into the new MAF?

WRT to housings, DEK MAF = A33B MAF.

With respect to housing size, the sensor is the same.



Cliffs: Anything 5.5 gens do, you can do it too using the same hardware.

Would that not be overkill using a Land Rover MAF though?

General consensus seems to be pointing in that direction right now.

1.) Get ahold of 6spd_Hayes and see if he will sell you one.
2.) Bore your stock unit.
3.) Find a Ford 77mm unit and custom fit your sensor into

Maybe I'll try boring, I think I got a old housing lying around. I saw a thread on that option.

But I thought the J30 would be a good option at $50 since I see its the same as a Z32 which is common.

I fail to see the advantages/gains of a J30 MAF.

IMO, it's easier to use your sensor in a different/larger housing. Assuming you have all supporting mods (AFC/WB).

Even though it might not be much harder to wire in the J30MAF, what exactly does the J30 have over the DEK?

Hence why it would be better then the A33B Mass.

Yes I have supporting mods except for the WB yet. But SAFC is there as I've read what the MAF upgrade can do without proper tunning.

The Z32 MAF is like the A32 MAF in that the actual sensor can't be removed from the housing without hacking it up. Why not remove your sensor and bolt in into another housing? (get in touch with 6Spd_Hayes like Nmex suggested) The wheel need not be reinvented this day!

Gotcha, hopefully I didn't throw out my old MAF housing and I can play with that and contact 6spd as well.

Oh btw, I think the reason that A32's can't use the A33/B MAF is the same reason why you wouldn't be able to use an A32/Z32 MAF.

I got pwned

I did more reading

I am looking into other things such as my old MAF being bored and using the new sensor first then see from there.

Glad you're learning though. I thought I;d let you do some reading first. But yes, you're on the right track now

I'll check my options out for below a 77mm MAF the 82's 3.5 are using would be too much for a 3.0 from what I gather.

Depending on your ultimate goal(s), I'd shoot for a PFTB coupled w/ a larger MAF housing.

Got one, just no adaptor plate. Won't be able to do the TB for awhile (Wedding and house closing don't mix with mods lol)

!!!!!! That, along with this that I had done on my 3.0....

Do that to each runner on the LIM, use the gasket to port-match to the upper and polish as much as you can reach into the upper (if using a VI, most you might have to do is port matching, if at all). That top end will be sweeeeet! (especially with some cams y0!)
