those with a vortech charger
i wanna know where you guys put the maf sensor...
thanks |
On the 5th gen setup, you really want it on the intake side. I tried it on the charged side and blew the MAF at 10psi. So I moved it to the intake side. I guess that is why Stillen moved it to the intake side on 5th gens.

The MAF is about a foot up or so from the CAI filter on the non-charged pipe...
|
will the location of the maf on the intake pipe affect the sensor's readings???
|
It will only be affected when the BOV realeases air so for a split sec the car will be a bit rich, but if you get the BOV tightened to the right spot, you wont have any issues.
|
****, then i have no idea how to fix this ****... dont know if i should put the sensor back on the pressure side or get the 5th gen intake tube and put it on the intake side...
|
ok, why not just scrap the whole intake tube idea and put in a CAI for the s/c? On the end of the CAI right before the air filter, put the MAF there. This will be the ideal setup not to mention that you will get about 1psi more boost cause of the CAI.

you mean go from the charger straight into the fender??? thats what i have now.... but there should be something wrong witht he maf... either position of it or how it is mounted i gotta check
|
If your MAF is sitting in the fender, then there shouldnt be any problem. That is how at least half the people with the vortech s/c have it setup.

What problems are you having? and other suggestions?? |
