Default MAF discussion. (since we got cleaned out)

k so back to the maf.

all of you were saying it was a bad idea, you felt bad for my car, it runs like a 3 legged horse when you do it?

okay i hooked it back up this morning and drove my car with it on.

HOLY SH*T my car was slow as crap.

wanna know something else? my car overheated for the first time since i changed the thermostat.

lol you guys have no clue what yer talking about cuz i bet you have never even tried it.

why else would it say in turbo charging forums to disable yer maf?

UHM cuz it restricts yer airflow? duh.

Must be why all the 500,600,700,800,+ turbo mustang are running the sct BA maf's

You are not seeing enough air flow to peg a stock maf so its not restricting anything for you, when you see enough air flow to peg a stock maf you upgrade to a bigger maf...

yea cuz they have tuners. putting a tuner thru yer car for a turbo setup does the same thing as unplugging yer maf! show me one stang that hasnt had a tuner used with a turbo that has a maf on it.

on that note. how about any car?

Well there is only ONE way to prove it, VIDEO IT. You have a camera cause you took a video of your exhaust, so don't say you can't take a video. Unplug your MAF and video tape you doing it and then i will believe you. Until then, you are just a freakin idiot.

The tuner and custom program changes the scaling on the MAF and recalibrates it so it reads the airflow more accuratly. Unplugging it does the same thing?

What a moron....

removing the MAF is a great idea.
and while you're at it, remove the CKP, the TPS, the ECT, CMP, and whetever other "useless garbage" that comes factory on every single EFI car.




here is a small sample of cars that come turbo'd factory.

srt-4's
srt-6's
srt-8's
srt-10's
mazdaspeed 3's
mazdaspeed 6's
sti's
turbo beetles
turbo pt cruisers
svo mustangs



each of these vehicles are equipped with MAF sensors.
i wonder why
