Is this eBay MAS eliminator worth it?

[soulweaver]

Is this ebay item worth it and if it is what else do I need to make it work.

eBay Motors: HKS VPC DSM MAS eliminator (GM MAF Alternative) (item 330295042900 end time Dec-26-08 12:20:43 PST)

$400 are you crazy? Go with dsmlink if your going to dish out the cash. Or just and safc will work great too.

 

[soulweaver]

Sorry if this offends you but can you speak a little more clearly.

 

[JusMX141]

I'm scared.

At 2:37 you made a thread asking if you could vent your BOV, then at 3:08 you made another thread asking about a device which would eliminate your MAS, possibly a way to properly vent your BOV. Anyone else picking up on this?

With the money you'd spend on that VPC you would be able to actually mod your car, enabling you to run more boost.....which would also make your BOV louder, even if it were recirculated (as it should be).

Trust me: 20psi recirculated is a HELL of a lot louder than 8psi vented.

VPC is an OLD way to eliminate the restrictive stock maf. I've personally never used one, but I can tell you you'd be better off buying a 2g maf or saving a little more for DSMLink and the MAF cable, then you can run a GM MAF.

edit: If you just want to vent your BOV then just pull the damn hose off and plug it with a film canister etc. YA YA its gonna run like crap. When I first bought mine at 16 I drove it like that for about a year. It depends on the car whether or not its going to run right. But ya people here will always call you a ricer for venting.

 

[Gamble97]

Ok, buy this and call it a day:
2g maf (unhacked)
2g maf pigtail
1g dsmlink

problem solved. And keep your bov recirculated.

I agree with Gamble97

 

[kidderkennels]

Or buy a Maft translator for $200 used...and a GM maft for $45 used...and call it a day...vent with no problems...

OR be smart and recirc and Buy DSMLINK....it will be the best investment ever

 

[97JDMDC2]

For $400, go buy yourself a 16g, boost controller and boost gauge. Thats all you need if you want your BOV louder. The stock 12 psi boost doesnt have enough pressure to really blow open the BOV. Set the boost to 15 16psi and there ya have it.

 

[dsmfa9nutter]

Used maft=$125, maf from any gm vehicle from 95+ (thousands of possibilities)=$25. There's your mas elimination.

 

[kidderkennels]

Like I said brah...jus keep your BOV recirculated...spend the money else where

You already have Intake and Exhaust...Buy a Boost Gauge=$35 off ebay...a MBC=$25 of ebay...a 255 walbro Fuel pump=$90 new...and some evo injectors and crank dat boost

You'll need an AFPR for the 255.

or saving a little more for DSMLink and the MAF cable, then you can run a GM MAF.

So I have DSMlink were do I get a MAF cable so I can run a GM Maf?

The new Dsmlink V3 (ECMlink) has this option. You can order the cable from any place that sells the new version. If you don't have V3, you can get it upgraded.

 

[toofast82]

I would recommed spending your money on other stuff to go fast first. But yeah, vpc is old and outdated! I use a custom eprom chip with speed density coding that i can tune everything on. you can check out translator pro too if youre looking to go speed density and vent

That's it.

 

[xxsupralvrxx]

Yes, They are an upgrade. They are 560cc injectors, And are the same style as the dsm injectors.

 

[xxsupralvrxx]

dang thats pretty cool would a the MAFT be able to control enough airflow to make up for the bigger injectors?

 

[1993eclipseGS]

You can use the maft to tune in the injectors, Basically just like an safc, So to speak... You'll need a logger and or wideband.

 

[xxsupralvrxx]

of course after the new year i'll buy a good wideband but thanks for the nwew info dsmtuners ftw! happy holidays ppl

 

[soulweaver]

Ok ok I got the picture and I'm late on the reply caz my internet card broke. But I will save the money buy new injectors, and dsmlink. i have been doing a little reading on.
