MAF relocated

[sniper9]

Hey, just thought i would let everyone know i moved my MAF to the pressure pipe on my hiboost fmic. Im running my greddy type-s open vent now and it sounds sick. So far the car runs smoother and the gas needle seems to move less haha. Ill see for sure in the next few days. The car idles much smoother and there is no stalling. Runs perfect. Only took about 30 minutes to do at the local shop also. Might take pics tommorow to show everyone. Later

Dude, I have had this on my car for three years. Has worked for me for that long.. Have a look by the extra injectors close to the Throttle Body..

when u relocate the MAF is there anything special that needs to be done to the intake? like i have the injen is it just a matter of takin off the right side of the pipe and slappin the filter on the other half by where the MAF used to sit? or is there more to it?

You should look into where it goes, but it is quite simple as you said..

hey man i been wanting to do this for a awhile i got the hi boost kit too, which shop did you go to and how much

Good work. It is a nice trick for our cars that should have been done in the first place.

Just cut the pipes yourself. I used a handsaw with a metal cutting blade. Its so easy to do.......

which connection bit did you use. i was thinking about using my dremel for completing mine, but i didnt think they had any bits strong enough.

one of the hard cutting discs. They will cut through anything if you give them enough time, and have enough of them to wera through. Just wear saftey goggles and carry a few of the discs cause they have a tendency to shatter at fling bits at high speeds. (dark)

o ok. i've used those before, and have a whole bunch of them that came with my kit. i used it once on metal before and experienced it shatter, so i didnt think they would be strong enough. thanks though for the tip. (thumb)

They come at least two different thicknesses, the wimpy ones won't cut it.

the dremel does work....my buddy and i cut off a broken wheel stud with one..takes forever though...like peepslot said...just buy the more durable discs....a dremel tool is a must in any guys tool inventory....
