does anyone have a gm maf that would fit onto my upper intercooler pipe that they would be willing to sell fairly inexpensively???

also, i would like to look into a front mounted intercooler. does anyone have one of those also, or know where to get one???

ok, i have found a gm maf sensor but how do i know if it will work on my car? i can get it from advance auto for about $45, is that a good price???? can i get one that is just as reliable for less???????

As long as its a 3" or 3.5" GM MAF it will work with the translator.
SCCA Stang
what about the electrical connection?????
natedogg
The electrical connection on the GM MAF's are all the same. 3 wires. Power, ground, and signal.

You do realize you need a GM MAF translator right? You can purchase these at fullthrottlespeed.com or ramchargers.com. The translator takes the voltage signal from the GM MAF and 'translates' it to a frequency signal that the Mitsu ECU understands. It also allows you to tune your fuel maps. It has the plugs that you need on it. Very easy to install.

Ahhh...haha. I didn't realize you didn't know you needed the translator. Sorry about that. I just assumed you already had one when you asked about the GM mafs. Its a great purchase. I really enjoy my translator. You can't beat fuel tuning for basically any size injector for $200 plus the cost of the GM MAF. biggrin.gif
