Need oppinions on FMIC kits using GM mass blow thew

[TSIfreek]

What kit would you recomend using the GM mass blow thew set up. I am looking for a sparco street core and 2.5" piping. I was also going to run the air filter down in the fender. Thanks for your help

its blow through

 

[DGajre777]

For the blow-through or blow-thru setup, I'd recommend
1) www.dejonpowerhouse.com or
2) www.extremeintercoolers.com

I have no idea what cores they use. If you want a sparco street core, just buy the intercooler and get custom piping done.

I don't know of any other kits that have modifications done to them for the GM MAF.

 

[crustysock]

I bought the SBR kit and hacked the pipe myself.

What do you guys think of the quality of the extreme intercoolers compared to a sparco core??

its spearco! If you want it to work really well you should just buy the core(216 is the best) and then have custom pipes made, or buy a nice one from one of the vendors that have the option of using the gm mas in a blow through configuration.

Go to www.turboneticsinc.com for spearco cores & specs.
Use a dejontooluper pipe that accepts the MAF.
Call turboneticsinc for their opinion of the different FMIC's. Mark

hey on this topic, im kinda new to DSM's im more of an SR20 Nissan guy, and i myself have Turbo'd 3 vehichles in my time, and seen many more, but all nissans, and all nissans that i have had expirience with have all had the MAF right after the filter, and before the turbo, what i have found that you guys call draw through, why do you guys all do blow-through instead, what are the benefiets over draw through, cause i just dont get it?????

thanks for the help

All stock cars are draw through, filter > MAF > turbo. What are the benefits? None. Most people do blow-through instead of draw through, cause you can vent to atmosphere.

thanks, thats awesome im gonna change over my bro's car cause its a bi*** with atmospheric blowoff on an air metered car, thanks for the info

 

[sweet97]

Not just to blow off to the atmosphere. Also opens the intake to the turbo even more. Gives the ECU an even more accurate info as to the amount of air entering the intake with the MAF closer to the intake. Mark

I use the buschur FMIC, and Dejon Tool piping. Works great.

incorrect there is more reasons than just venting and their are benefits. Less restriction for the turbo to have to fight against = faster spool up. the gm mas is way more accurate than our maf(not saying ours is bad). Less boost leaks to look for. For the 1g guys the stock maf is easily overun so this is a great upgrade. and for the ricer in all of us it let's us vent.

Nice! I learn something new all the time in this place That's why I like DSMTuners.

1stgensleeper - I apologize for the misinformation. I always figured GM MAF is mainly for venting.

no sh*t man could you imagine trying to figure out answers to your problems without the internet and forums, id be searching for days maybe months for the forum

it wasnt misinformation, it was just partial information, dont worry about it man

 

[TSIfreek]

Thanks guys for all your replys.

that's what we are here for, I wouldn't know half the stuff I do unless I came here and read or tried it myself.

If your up for an hour drive to Rockford, there is a new shop that builds custom IC for dsm's as well as the piping, FMIC, SMIC, Blow thew they do it all. I have a Large FMIC they built for me with the blow threw piping that works great! If you can do without your car for a few days they can even install everything for you.

The shop is called 4 Power Products.
If you want directions to check it out let me know.

Dammit - it's blow thru or blow through.. what the hell is blow thew? and blow threw? WTF

 

[WatchItExplode]

just do a search for GM MAFT and you will have all the information you need and more.

Too (to) (two) many video games and not enough time spent reading!

no my brothers got a Nissan 200sx with an sr20, its all homemade IC piping though, so ill just cut a section out and throw his MAF inline

Blow thru isnt the great invention ever. You can vent, but be careful whenever you drive your car in high humidity. Blow thru will not be the same day to day.

I wouldnt use most factory MAS in a blow through setup, the boost will destroy the MAS. Get the GM MAS if you wanna do it.

So wait are you sayig you are going to use a nissan maf on your car is a blow through set up? if so I won't even address this.

boost will not destroy the mas, as a matter of fact a few people have used stock 2g maf's in blow through configurations but they tend not to read so accurately becuase of the way the sensor works.
