I cant connect anything to this MAF...nothing to bolt it up against...

oh and AJM its a atmosphere BOV no vacuum line here!

No need to bolt it to anything, it can hang free the pipes will support it well enough. Theres plenty people running theres that way. Or if you want to spend a little more get you a maf flange from vmptuning.com, drill a hole in your i/c pipe in the correct spot, weld the flange on and mount the actual maf sensor in that. Thats what I ended up doing. Costs a bit more in the end though but tuning results are better as well.

 

[Scott2001GT]

this is becoming a project... idk enough about this stuff.

If you get a tight enough clamp it should work, or you can try the adapter I linked. Let me know what you end up doing because I'm in the same predicament as you.

 

[Scott2001GT]

i would think a 90degree coupler, 3in to 4in would work with t-bolt clamps?? anyone?

i don't understand this though....

 

[Scott2001GT]

Why the **** does my 2600SCT not have a 4blot flange!? riddle me this!

 

[Scott2001GT]

should I just t-bolt both sides? all I need is a MAF housing and i can swap sensors!

 

[ajm]

Youre making things hard on yourself. You dont need a flange to bolt it up and all that **** like oem. Just slip a coupler on it, slip the pipe in the other end and slap some tbands on it simple as that.

 

[Scott2001GT]

ok so just couple both sides? and t bolt that ****!?

In that case the maf sensor is mounted in the ic piping itself rather than a maf housing that is put inbetween the piping. This allows for more consistent air flow, no changes in the pipe before/after the maf etc. If you want pics ill post some for you.

 

[Scott2001GT]

yes please!!

 

[DiZzyBonne]

Oh, your MAF SHOULD have a flange, I just noticed yours doesn't...

 

[Scott2001GT]

yeah idk why i doesnt?! its wierd..I may call SCT and see if they have a housing with no sensor

 

[Scott2001GT]

ok I just talking to me Tuner and he said coupler both sides and t bolt them and it will be fine!!

Hmmm what did I say? :shiftyeyes.......

Anyways heres that pic

 

[Scott2001GT]

If you cant find one let me know . Anyways heres how its done with a maf flange from vmptuning.com....loading pics now.

well I am going to order thoughs couplers on Monday! And t-bolt it. Id it blows off under boost I'll worry about it then with the Tuning Guy. I am 3 couplers and a bracket away!

Oh and how big is the coupler for the P1 to the tube for the BOV?

Meausre the OD of the outlet on the blower, measure the OD of the pipe, and thats what you need. For vortech I needed a 2.75 to 3 if I remember right. Not 100% sure on what the procharger would be.

 

[Scott2001GT]

You were right AJM haha. Looks like next weekend I have a project!

Ight I am peacin out for now guys. I have to get prices on t-bolts and then work! Thanks everyone! I may have more questions later!

Peace
