maft v1.0 questions

[mk3-4-me]

So i have what i believe is a complete setup for the maft. I got it with an engine i bought.

So i have the MAF translator and the GM 3" bar sensor. is that all i need?

And i read the manual, i was wondering how i check the VF. Like what exactly do i use to check it? a tool? im new to this tuning stuff.

So please let me know what you guys think.

and there are 2 pink wires on my MAFt. any idea??

And yes- that's all you need, assuming you have the wiring harness to connect the MAF to the MAFT.
The MAF can be placed in suck thru, or blow thru arrangement. Blow-thru allows for external venting of a BOV.

Ok thx for the site! Lol is it just either or? Or is there certain settings for suck through vs blow through? Id rathher have an atmospheric BOV.

I have the gm 3 bar, clip that goes in it, and the MAFt withthe wires hangin out. I think i get the concept now and how to set it... I read that write up. Its a lil confusun cause im new to it, but i shoukd figure out how to set the knobs n wat not.

Not sure what you mean by having the GM 3 bar. If that's a MAP sensor, it won't work with a MAFT.
You need this:

To set it up in blow thru mode, you have to run the IAC line to the intake(charge) piping before the MAF, then you can do it.

Ya thats wat i have, i thought it was called a 3 bar... Lol idk

But wat do you guys think is better the maft or a HKS Pfc Fcon and GCC?

Fcon is old tech. Maftpro allows timing changes.

But i dont think you have maft pro.

I have had the MAFT 1.0 on my car for at least 7 years, and never, ever had an issue with it.
It gives you the ability to select almost any size injector, and adjust the AFR at different RPM@ WOT,
and at different throttle positions. There are a few other abilities, but nothing that comes close to the MAFT Pro.
For me, it does what I need, as my power goals are not that crazy yet. But because of it's ease of setup and reliability,
I will probably go with the Pro version next.

ya thats what i thought... im gunna be using it untill i want to buy the maft pro... thanks it really sounds fun to tune with... lol i cant wait.
