Ok, so to make it quick n sweet, can anyone show me a picture of their maft into their 2g harness?

Now the longer side. Car has 2g maf, and had stock side mount. Today I installed my fmic and ran my piping, tomorrow I'm installing my new turbo and would like to do the maft hardwire. I bought a maft and gm maf off someone on here and it had the papers, but no pigtail to plug into the 2g. I don't remember the pin out on the 2g so I can hardwire the maft into it. So any help would be greatly appreciated. And I am doing away with the 2g maf because of fitment annoyances with the new piping.

I already had all that. Its the wire to wire im lookin for. So far I have

Pin Number
1 5v power
2 Barometric pressure (Connect to grey wire for MAFT)
3 Air Flow
4 MPI Control
5 Ground ( Connect to Black wire to MAFT)
6 Intake air temp ( Connect to brown wire for MAFT)
7 Volume air flow
8 Open

So with that, it says 12v supply for the MAFT where the pin out is for a 5v. Then What would I tap the translator frequency signal (green wire) into? I know the white wire goes to the CAS for RPM signal. Now with all that being said, What am i going to do with the unused wires, and where should I put the green translator signal wire into?
 
So are you trying to use the 2g maf sensor with the maf translator and not a gm maf? I do not believe that will not work properly. The translator converts the maf scaling so that that the signal is right for the ecu.
 
No, I have a GM MAF that is replacing my 2g maf. I need the translator to read the GM mass air.
 
so buy a 2g maf translator.

Obviously that is not exactly possible at this very second. But thanks for being absolutely NO help to this conversation. If you dont have something to contribute, DONT say anything.

All I am asking is where the green wire connects and if I have to run a hot wire for a 12v power supply.

and as far as I know this IS a 2g Maft, it just does not have the plug there anymore. So im looking for a simple answer please.
 
ok simple maybe im not understanding i ran a gm maft with a translator, 2g translator will have a different connector for a 2g does it fit in the connector that will let you know first of all if its meant for a 2g translator, once thats confirmed at least you will know its a 2g translator. did you look at russmans link for the wiring, that should help a lot.

OK, I have a 1g car, that currently has a 2g MAF in it. Im swapping that to a GM maf and a maft. I bought a setup from someone on here that was both the maft and maf. The MAFT only has the plug to plug into the GM, not the chassis harness. So again, im confused here. 5v is what the chassis pin says it provides, but those say 12v is needed for the maft. Next if you take wire functions and connect them (hardwire) to the chassis harness, You have 6 wires to connect from the maft to the chassis.

Pink is 12v power, Green is Translator frequency signal, Black is ground, Brown is ATS, Gray is Barometric pressure, and White is RPM signal.

White goes to the CAS via tap,
Gray will go where the pin2 on the 2g harness is,
pink should go where pin1 (power supply) is,
Black should be in pin 5 (ground) and pin 6 should take the brown ATS.
So I dont have a pin to plug translator frequency signal into. Would that plug into pin 3 (airflow) pin 4 MPI control, or pin 7 Volume airflow?

So yet again, im confused as to where this should get wired in. I do not have the plug that would plug into a 1g or 2g as a pnp part, so this is going to have to be hardwired. So thus the reason I am asking to see a picture of someone with a 2g and a maft. I need to see where they plug together and the wire colors on both sides. Makes things so much more simple.
 
yeah none of them really help at all. The hardwire a Maft in a 2g seems like he cut the 2g harness out and didnt have the chassis side, but had the maft side. I am quite the opposite. I have the chassis side, but no maft side harness plug. Thats what I need. I am looking for the order of the wires on the gm maft plug that would plug into the chassis harness.
 
I just searched on the net for a maft and looked at the 2g plug. And it looks like the green wire will connect to the airflow line.
 
Yeah I was hoping to have it all done today, but no luck. Still need to plumb the oil system for the turbo, and I need to get a different fitting for the oil pan. The one that came in was a 90* fitting and I need a strait fitting. So its been an aggrivating day so far. 13b is out of the car, 50trim is in. FMIC installed and piping ran. Still need to plug the head oil port (may just run my oil pressure gauge there and piss on it) and need to run the feed line from the OFH up. Run the -10 line on the return port to the pan and wire in the maf and she is done. need a couple hose clamps too, cause I had the wrong ones for the turbo inlet. To small. So almost done.
 
Indeed, damn speed shops are closed on sat apparently. So have to wait till monday to get the fittings I need to finish up with the return tube to the pan. Until then I still have to notch the sub bumper and reinstall the PS pump and put the BOV on the flange and wire up the MAFT. So I should be able to keep myself busy tomorrow. I am planning to do a lil fabricating to the sub bumper to do something similar to the 3gb supra's with the A duct. It will help flow air to the area of the FMIC that is covered by the sub bumper and hopefully allow some air to bypass the FMIC to better cool the rad too. Trying to have a little fun with this for the limited things I plan to do for now.
 
Mine wiring form a 2g MAF to MAFT was
Pink-Red (pin4)
Green-blue (3)
black-black (5)
brown-red and blue (6)
grey-orange (2)
white- Cam angle sensor white
GO BY PINS a since wires can vary
