1G N/A 4g63 MAF translator hardwiring

I've noticed there wasn't any how-to on a MAFT install for the n/a 4g63, and since I bought one and installed the rest of it today, I might as well write the article. All the wiring is as if you are looking at the MAS plug if you were the MAS itself. The pins from there are 321
654
Now on the wires from the MAFT, it's pink to pin 2, then green to pin 1, then black to pin 4, brown to pin 6, gray to pin 5, and the white rpm wire goes to pin 2 (black) on the CAS, just like a turbo car would. Basically the whole plug shifts over one pin compared to a turbo MAF connector. (someone on tuners said this earlier, I forget who, but they said this and that person is right on).

Now for startup. I set my base at 450cc injectors just to start the car. Turns out I was a little rich, so I dialed it back to 440. The MAFT just translates by the way, it doesn't know if the 450cc setting is running 450s or the 240s on a n/a car. It just compensates for the difference from whatever the stock injector is. My settings for my base were set for my hacked MAF (I don't have a cone filter yet) and a 3" exhaust with no cat, so that's why it's a little leaned out.

So the MAFT does work on a non-turbo car, but just make sure you have a datalogger of some sort so you don't fry it all. I'm not responsible for detonation or a fire from a short due to faulty wiring and things of that sort.

Thanks to full throttle for selling me the thing and all the support of this site. l8r.
