Central America
heys guys!!
So straight to the point, I got 3" gm maf for free and since a have link i thought giving it a try, i bought the GM MAF cable from their site as well so now i need some advise. On ecmtuning i read this...
"NOTE 1: We absolutely must make mention of the fact that GM MAF outputs WILL vary from car to car. Most variations should be minor and easily corrected. However, it's not at ALL unusual to see a GM MAF installation require up to 30 or 40% adjustment from our base configuration! It's simply the way the GM MAF works. If you vary the size of the piping around the GM MAF, its output is going to vary accordingly.
Our test platform used a 2.5 IC pipe with flared ends to 3 just before/after the GM MAF install point which was about 6 to 8 linear inches from the throttle body. If your setup varies from this, you can probably expect variations in GM MAF output from the base values we provide in ECMLink."
So what their base configuration is and how dsmlink knows that there is a gm maf since there is no option on dsmllink to add the 3"gm maf anymore? how am i supposed to tune? WTF
Sorry for the noob question but i don't want to turn on the car and run super lean or something because of the time the ecu thinks the air takes to travel from the intake to the mani. Correct me if i'm wrong.
