I know there is a few of yea out there, can you post pics of where you have you Mass Air Low Sensor at.
is it before or after your blowoff on your charge pipe? or is it on the intake pipe?

Sentry

You can do either. Draw through (through the turbo intake) is only if you're going to be recirculating the bov back into the intake piping. The more accurate approach is blow through (after the compressor housing at the charge piping) and more specififcally after the BOV. If you do it before the bov you're just dumping metered air and you'll run a little rich between shifts/gears.

mass air low?

wow, i didnt even think to look into this, thanks

pykie thanks for bringin it up, everyone else thanks for the answers

Just wondering where i could get a blow thru maf sensor?

nother question, Where in the piping should i put my Atmosperic BOV, before the intercooler or after it?

pykie

Thanks that helped alot.

what kind of maf is that? the not block one? i would also like to get that kind. but as for the bov most people do it after the intercooler

Heres my bay.

MK, Your MAF is in the intake of the turbo, correct? You have the recirculating BOV also, i am wanting to use an atmospheric BOV and am not sure where the best place to locate the MAF in my system is, i am doing a custom setup by the way!

Bov= maf before throttle body, in the cold charge piping, bov in the hot charge piping

Your going turbo faulk?!

b_faulk75

Huh? Sorry, i think i understand u but not sure!

I'm workin on it!

Okay im running a PIT BOV, so i am assuming its not the recirculating BOV
but still now i am confused.
the colr side of the charge pipe is on the drivers side of the car, and i really dont want to cut my harness to wirethe sensor in way over there...
any ideas?
and if you locate the MAF on the intake pipe do you have to use a recirculating BOV?

U don't have to cut it, I undid the loom to mine and I had enough slack to move it by the ECM

i did the same for my setup, and it reaches all the way to the stock LSJ intake, in the fender well. Its tight tho, but i doubt you will need t route yours that far

Sentry

The bov can be on the cold side, in fact that's where it probably should go. It's all preference at this point. More than one way to skin a cat. I would personally do blow through, bov after IC and then MAF right before the TB.

That what I'm doing my maf pipe from zzp should arrive tommorow

my setup is ran from the intake throttle body down to intercooler and between them two I have my blow off valve

Then other side of intercooler to the turbo.

My maf is on the intake pipe going to the inlet side of the turbo. Is this correct?

pykie

Can you send me pics of this set up you have? and the link to the maf pipe from zzp?

Sentry

That's all fine, just remember that if you're using a atmospheric bov that you'll be dumping air that's already been registered by the maf. In other words, you'll be telling the computer to shoot fuel when there's no air to combust it. You'll be running rich every time the bov actuates.

Now, if you're recirculating the air back into the intake pipe, you have nothing to worry about.

How would I recirculate it back to the intake pipe. all I know is that my bov is blitz

Sentry

Some can't be recirculated, like mine that has an airhorn style outlet. But, most just have a nipple that blow out the air that you can attach a hose to run it to the intake. You might have to drill into the intake pipe and tap it with a brass fitting though.

pykie

Okay heres my blowoff valve tell me where to put this and where does my maf go thank you


you can see my newly made shorty antenna in the pic too lol
