I'm having a problem with my Maft set up. The main problem is everytime I floored it, once the rpm reached 4k rpm, I started loosing power. It's like the car just died, so I have to pump the gas to revive it. Basically, the car just won't boost. Everytime it goes close to 4k rpm, eighther: 1-it will bug on half throttle and 2-it will die when you floor it.
But when I installed the old 2g maf sensor back, it runs fine. Now I couldn't figure out if it was my maf translator or the GM maf. I also have 1 spare GM maf but it does the same when I installed it.
Now this is not where the story ends: I am running the AEM water/meth injection above the GM maf and looks like both of my GM maf got wet. I activated the injection too early on the boost. This is why I'm hoping that it was just my GM maf.
Now here's what I found out. I datalogged the run and I see my airflow count goes up soo fast without the boost at aroun 4k rpm where I dropped the power. And the hertz goes up as well. The count is on 8 and the hertz is on 1600hz and my inj is on 14ms. So
So basically the way I see it, the maf sends out a huge amount of air in a sudden and cost the injectors to inject too much fuel. It's why It dropped the power before boost. Those reading that I just said was the reading that I used to see on full boost (25psi) when it was running fine.
So basically the whole maft set up is screwed up. But the question is, Is it the maf translator or just the GM maf sensor?
Does anybody had this experience before? I hope somebody can help me out. Here are my set up. Thanks
