maf vs pressure

[fieromx3]

ok can a MAF be used under boosted conditions? like being under boost. can a MAF read boost and be run under a turbo with no problems? its simple and stupid i know. and i alos know about the 3'' GM maft conversion..

A MAF does not read boost a Maf reads air flow so in a boosted car it just read's the air as it passes the MAF

MAP works using pressue. Mas (stock) counts eddies created in the air to measure air flow. Maf uses wires and calculates how much voltage it takes to keep a wire at a certain temp. The more air molecules, the more the wire is cooled, the more voltage it takes to keep it warm.
