Re: Show me your beater.
There was a same topic like this like a couple of weeks ago. Maybe on another forum ur somthing. Some one was talkin about putting one on from a corvette, cause it had the same voltage as ours, and was a lot bigger, dont know the out come of it though. I'll search around to see if I can find it.

Re: Is there a larger MAS?
it's a stupid question and topic because a MAF sensor from corvete has completely different readings even with the same voltage. its 5V will respond to 1000CFM(random number), while ours will be 250CFM(random number).

I think you should have read at least one post out of that topic and see that the main concern was getting a MAF sensor that will not max out at 13psi that Jon is running right now, and will have the same 5V readings. FYI this MAF sensor is from XG and it's the same size in diameter, maybe a bit bigger. I've been following alone that thread...
The thread that we are in right now is a discussion of the diameter size.

Re: Check out these gauges
Well the problem isn't the Diameter on our MAF's it is the Fact it Max's out around 13psi in warm weather and 10psi in cold weather, as that is all JonGTR can run his at.
So you see there is really no need for a Larger MAF but rather one that doesn't max out at 10-13psi.

Re: Car has no sparkie
Using an S-AFC II you can throw a different MAF on there and it translates it. Im not sure how effective this would be because if its translated to 5v then its translated to 5v. However it is a popular trick in the DSM world to throw a GM MAS on there and use a translater to get more power.

I don't think it's stupid either Shogun..thanks for the info.
Thanks for answering guys. I've learned a thing or two from this.

Re: popping in wet weather
I agree with one of the guys on that thread. He mentioned installing a second MAF to they each read 50% of the air. Then use the SAFC to interpret the signals.

Re: Lil antenna Q
There are several possible solutions.
1. Getting a larger aftermarket MAF that is translated correctly.
2. Getting a larger tube for the stock wire assembly and correcting for the extra uncalculated air.
3. Getting a whole new MAF from a different car and hopefully be able to translate it yourself.
4. Get an extra similar MAF, run them in a Y configuration, take both signals into the SAFC and put out the "average" signal to the ECU.
As soon as it quits raining and I get some spare time, I'm gonna do each of these until it works. Starting with 2, 3, 4......
