AGP's New blow through translator

[eclipsegsx9797]

i think the mas is only good if you have to vent or just want to elimnate some stuff, i never tune with my mas i just use it to vent and i tune with my afc and soon ill tune with my dsmlink.

Does anyone have any idea how much horsepower 800 cfm is equal to? I over ran my 2G mas and melted 2 pistons, now I have a 3 inch MAS and I am getting worried I will over run that one. Any ideas?

 

[HyperGSX]

Why didn't you opt for the 3.5"?

 

[kilurv8]

It is bad enough that right now my pipes have to go from 2.5 to 3 inches to 2.5 again right before the thorttle body, let alone 2.5 to 3.5 then back. Maybe I will have to switch. Ill have to see.

I have read the 2g mas gets overrun usually around 400whp. Anything above thats and its really risky for getting a seriously lean condition. Thats is what I have read on the DSMlink boards.

You are right, a stock 2g mas will only work up to about 400, then it needs tyo be hacked and have other stuff done like a bypass tube so you can make 500hp like other people are doing.

 

[eclipsegsx9797]

well, i think i mite wait now to see what agp does with this sensor thing to see if it works better then the gm maft setup. it seems nicer sense its not a huge mas but who knows.

so when will more info be avalible and what about the fmic can we get more info on that thanks.

I am sure that the limit is well over 400 hp. I think the last rough guestimate on my car was something around 460hp on a bone stock mas. THis is based on calculator numbers and my cars weight so take it with a grain of salt but most cars goign 100 mph in the 1/8 have more than 400 hp.

But most of the people on here have never gone down the track, much less have a 100mph 1/8th car, so take the info as you may. Brandon, I'll ask my guy on the east coast if his 542whp car has a bypass tube or not on his 2G MAS.

Yes, I run a bypass in the intake pipe to avoid MAS overrun. The 2G MAS starts getting "sloppy" around 2600Hz. At about 2700Hz, it's overrunning. On the dyno, I hit 2300Hz, so the bypass trick helps. I would guess ideally, i.e. no boost leaks, somewhere in the 450-460whp range the 2G MAS gets flaky, maybe a bit more. I'd be interested to know the most HP that's been made with the 2G MAS. With a shifting trans, I'm sure the car would go 10.50 with the 2G MAS/AFC setup.

I was wondering because with my 60-1 I am pretty sure I am going to overrun the stock 2G mass. So I am not sure if I should run it till I hit the max and then switch, Or should I go with the GM mass? Or should I run AGP's? So many choices

Threads keep comming up on this subject so I'm just going to explain it a little. We are building a new type of blow though MAF sensor that will work with the MAF Translator box. This sensor will thread into a special flange welded onto your upper i/c pipe and hang down in the air stream. This way you don't have to have your 2.5" i/c pipe hose clamped to a 3" GM sensor.
Ask away.

Kevin,

Are you guys building your own version of a MAS Translator, or are you making a replacement for the GM mas to be used with the Ramchargers MAF Translator box? It sounds to me like the latter, but I just want to make sure.

The exact answer is in the piece you quoted. Can't be much more obvious, maybe a picture....

 

[TwoLiterV8Eater]

Well like I asked, I was just wondering if AGP had created their own translating software/hardware or if they were just making a different MAS to use with the Ramchargers one. Maybe it was obvious to you, but I wanted an answer from someone that works for AGP. Thanks.

This will be a new sensor to go with Mike Licht's box. We are working with Mike on this. Our sensor will have it's own calibration setting.

that fmic is looking realy good but, we need some more pics of the endtanks and the pipes. also how the fmic sites on the front and how the pipe are routed

here is the pic of the that same intercooler...cuz it was my car that candela put there..

 

[KRAZYKOREAN]

mounted........

 

[KRAZYKOREAN]

here are the pipes...very short routed..these are made buy the hands of Kevin himself look at these pipes are there any better....

 

[irn__man]

Looks like a nice setup!

When will the FMIC Kit be available?

fwm

 

[eclipsegsx9797]

ya that fmic looks good, although its the same fmic style that i had before (irc) but the pipes look alot better and y does that one pipe neck down so much and is there a 90 degree elbow to hook up to our turbos.

 

[sleeper142]

whats with the neck down in the one pipe. looks like a lathed piece. Why did you guys choose to do the same end tanks IRC did?

 

[eclipsegsx9797]

also does the kit come with the option of black pipes, gm mas pipe, any flang, and does it come with a new t/b elbow

 

[eclipsegsx9797]

o also kevin could you send me a pm when my turbo is sent out, with the tracking number thanks jim

Kevin-

Let's have some real information about these! Are they hotwire? What is the source? Where else have they been used? Who makes them? How do they work (if they are not hotwire)? What airflow range are they good for?

 

[eclipsegsx9797]

yes we need alot more info , im currantly about to buy the gm maft setup and im sure you wouldnt want me and others to go buy that because there is no info about what your doing
