tech9 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Looking to swap in a turbo motor soon, and might as well do MS / ford EDIS. So I see a lot of people using a 93 Cobra MAF in some setups, MS supports MAF I assume, but why do they use a ford maf? Why not a GM maf, etc? Also, can you not run a MAF and just do TPS / MAP? I searched and just can't find the answers... Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffer949 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 umm why do you need one all together? you can use only tps and map and no maf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tech9 Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Thats my exact question, why is everyone adding a MAF? I can't wait to get rid of the stock 280z MAF. But MAF is very very accurate, i'm sure more then a MAP, would this be any performance gains? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad-ManQ45 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 All 280's (Z's and ZX's) utilize and AFM not a MAF. Big difference in restriction, but still a restriction and something else to go wrong. For ultimate fuel mileage and driveability though, as long as you can tune it, MAF is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tech9 Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Ahhh, I understand. Probially a pain to tune the MAF, might as well go with TPS / MAP for now? Thanks for the answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardBlack Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 MAF's have better response at idle and very low load. They also have a little more leniency for slight flow variations. MAP is simpler, no restrictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
