DarrellBuddy321 Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 With an intercooler setup where does the afm hook up to? Sorry im rebuilding my first engine and still getting familiar with a turbo setup. Been doing about 3-4 hours of reading online not to metion all the magazines and books. Im a bit confused as to where the afm hooks up...sorry thanks guys Darrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxgtr Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Hooks up to the turbos air inlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SeanyD300zxT Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 The MAF or AFM (one in the same) don't really seem to like a 'blow through' type setup, where it would be reading pressurized air from the turbo. In a hot wire type afm (found in 300zx's) the heated(pressurized) air doesn't give a clear reading, and also kills the turbos because the were calibrated. So air has to be pulled through, hense being mounted before the turbo inlet. when in doubt, draw yourself a picture.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT.. ever seen that turbo kit you can buy for a 350z that they advertise in magazines? It locates the MAF after the turbo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
