hi ,

 

i was wondering what i could do , to swap in a diffrent AFM or MAF...

 

ive heard of swapping it for a mustang one , but JWT says the ecu has to be programmed to accept the for MAF

 

it really gets in my way of doing I/C piping , so i was thinking i could also lengethen the wires and run it infront of the radiator ( where that compartment is......) and stick a block of wood in it

( so it sends a ecu signal) , and let it be.....but thats the ghetto way :?

 

i tried searching i didnt get much..........

 

lets hear what you guys have done...........i know megasquirt , but thats done the road another year or so.......

If you are careful you can run the pipes throught next to the AFM. Thats how mine was for a long time.

 

 

You might try this http://www.splitsec.com/ They don't have a kit for our cars but, you might give then a call and see what they can do.

 

Every now and then I see a JWT setup for sale used on the net. Thats what I have and makes a huge diffence.

are you asking for a complete list?

 

Computer is the older JWT setup that I bought used from a member of Hybrid Z. It uses the 85 Z31 computer and MAF + 420cc injectors. I'm sure the newer version is even better than what I have. Better computer and the MAF is larger. The JWT setup is not the end-all-be-all computer but, you'd be hard pressed for it's ease of installation and flexiblilty. Especially if your like me and most of us. Not a computer programmer. I have no dought that given the time to learn all the in's and out's of a programable computer I could replicate what I have now but, I would have missed all the fun of enjoying the car for the time being. This is my daily driver. Down time is not a good thing.

 

If you want a complete list let me know and I'll start thinking about all the stuff that been done over the years.

I did mine the same. 2 2.5 IC pipes.... It will fit Rory, you might need to push your AFM down a little more that all. It's not easy when our ZX's weren't ZXT to begin with. LOL but, when there's a will there's a WAY!!!! :wink:
