He is right. If you want a GM maf, there is a bit more work involved because you will end up welding in a GM IAT into your intercooler piping (and other related equipment, ecu work, wideband, ostrich 2.0...etc). I have it done but am also running speed density and venting to atmosphere. If you want the gm maf, and do it right, You're going to need a tuning software. That will get pricey if all you want is a different blow-off sound.
There are two answers to your question.
The first one is simple.Get a different bov,and intake,and 2g maf.Thats all bolt on besides the 2g maf requires some wiring. You don't need a different bov,The 1g valve is a great valve."But I want that pshhh sound".Thats still a simple mod to put a type s on the stock 1g piping,its just two holes need to be drilled and the old 1g holes need to be sealed.Now changing to a 2g maf on a 1g,also requires a tune unless you have 550 injectors,going in with the 2g maf.
The next answer is putting a gm maf in the car rather than the 1g 2g evo maf.But that's gonna require a maf translator.And most of the folks running the gm maf system run a speed density system.
Back to the pshh sound...On a speed density system you can vent your bov to the atmosphere.On our stock systems,that air is already calculated for,and venting to atmosphere isn't a good idea.
