1G Anyone have a 3g/evo maf in there 1g?

I am looking for some pictures of a 3g/evo maf in a 1g. I am concerned about the clearance needed to fit an air filter...

Any reason you dont want to use the 2g Maf? Just wondering I guess..

You have a good amount of room, I have a dejon intake pipe on mine and its not much longer then a 2g maf.

Not just yet, but I will be using an Evo MAS on my 1G FWD....however I'm using one of the short DeJon intake pipes that allows plenty of clearance for my oversized SMIC piping.

The evo one will fit right into the stock 1g intake pipe, and the maf itself is shorter than a 2g Maf, hopefully giving me enough room for a filter. I know some have issues with not having enough room for a filter with a 2g maf in a 1g.

I don't have it on right at the moment but it fits with a short filter and clears my aftermarket UICP for the sidemount IC and the factory rubber intake pipe. I'll see if I can measure the filter length or get you a picture of the MAF and filter.

That would be great, I also have a FMIC with short route piping, so I have some extra room because of no IC pipe in that area. I was looking at getting this filter for it, it measures 5 inches long, so if anyone can get some measurements, since I do not have that maf yet or I would myself.

I forgot to put the CF card in my camera when I went to take the picture. It's 4.5" or 5" long depending on how K&N measures it.

So this one will fit?

 

[steve]

As far as I can tell that's what I'm using on mine.

 

[rich3389]

OK it fits perfect with plenty of room...

Looks good. You could have gotten away with the longer one but I have a UICP and a few more brackets in that area.

Any gains with the Evo MAF over the 2G MAF?

 

[steve]

Gains?

It flows more air and is less of a restriction. It allows your other mods to work more efficiently. The big difference is the MAF outlet is round rather than oval so it fits the 1G stock turbo inlet pipe.

Like any other Mitsubishi MAF swap it requires ECU corrections to account for the change.
