maft pro compatible with dsm link???

[dsmfreak555]

I was wondering if the maftpro is compatible with dsmlink? the speed density is a nice feature because when I eventually switch to a larger setup I am probobly going to to a gt35r or fp3065 and these turbos have a 4" inlet. I was thinking about the blow through maf setup but I keep hearing bad things about it(please correct me if I am wrong on that) like having to calibrate etc.

I don't own dsmlink yet so I do not have access to their forum. Please help!!!

In short, Yes they are both compatable... I personaly do not recomend uprgading to a MAFT unless you have a wideband & MAP sensor. They are very diffucult to calibrate in Dsmlink even with the 2. What kind of answers are your looking for..

 

[BISHILVR]

I run the maftpro and the maftpro does basically the same job that dsmlink does, but with full speed density (which I run) as an option, and wideband air fuel ratio tracking also, along with a long list of other things including water/alchy injection control and a second fuel map that can be controlled in different ways or with a simple switch, so it is really a "one or the other" type of thing, but I'm sure you could run both, its just overkill.

I'd just go with Dsmlink, you get more control, more features, and great customer support.

Well what about the small maf problem? I mean, the largest gm maf that you could throw on is z06 maf(3.75") and with a 4" inlet turbo that would be kind of restricted unless i went to a blowthru setup, and all the hassles that go along with it. I'm stumped!!

Get an Evo maf. They can support over 550whp and are very easy to setup with Dsmlink. I saw one going for $100 on EvoM

If your ready to stop playing with old toys and get some serious power.

Thanks for the info, a couple of questions, first, do the evo maf wire up just a 2g??? and secend how large are they? my main concern is the maf hampering spool up on the larger 4" inlet turbos cause I could do without as many restrictions as possible!

Do you want to explain why you think TunerPro or MAFT Pro are better than, or even comparable to, Dsmlink?

The EVO maf wiring is different than a 2g but there are wiring diagrams available. It's roughly the same physical size as a 2g maf, but it can accurately measure more airflow than the 2g sensor. There isn't a noticeable restriction from the maf sensor, I wouldn't really worry too much about that. Tuning the MAF-T is a pain in the ass, the translator isn't setup correctly and it requires fine tuning with Dsmlink. Tuning for the Evo sensor is as easy as copying the values from the Dsmlink forum into the airflow table.

I forgot to mention the next version of Dsmlink is going to have speed density and direct GM maf support(you choose which one you want to run), you won't even need the translator.

You wont be able to read it on the DSMLink forums were it was first posted because you are not a member, yet. The DSMLink forums are a huge bonus to a already powerful tunning tool.

I think you are confused... People use the GM Mas in blow though, not draw through. Also, the Mitsu MAS is not going to be a restriction... you will not be the first person to use a S or SP compressor cover with the 4" inlet... If you go with DSMLink you can use a 2G MAS (oval inlet, large) or a EVO mas. The 2G mas is rumored to be good to 52 lbs/min, I have throughly tested mine to 51lbs/min with no break up. The EVO Mas is suppose to be good to around 62 lbs/min. With DSMLink you can still flow more then that by using the Fake Map feature (I think that is the name) and it will switch over at a HZ that you set...

actually the gm mas can be used in draw through, I don't want to vent my bov because it causes way to much attention in hawaii. Our mayor just recently pulled about 30% of all cops from other assignments/task forces to stop speeding/street racers so I would rather not have the added attention a vented BOV gets, on top of that nearly 1 out of 8 cop cars are highly modded( I know a few cops with supercharged mustang cobras with built motors pumping out high 500 to low 600 whp!!!!(how the hell do they get away with that???) I know this because I help my friends uncle tune his mustang!(sick car by the way)

 

[2gAWDTalon]

OK.... but what is the point? a 2G or a EVO Mas is going to work best for you, keep you car looking more 'stock' and running more 'stock'. What type of power levels are you looking for? Pump gas or race gas?

Unfortunately, we've heard that since around 2002.

I think I did with post number 8

 

[wvturbo2]

Why buy Maft pro and dsmlink. Either get one or the other. If you wanna run gm maf and blow through just get the gen1 and zero it out. If you don't want blow through I'd get the evo maf it on 2 pins different than the 2g i do believe. I know there is a wiring chart floating around somewhere for it. The Maft pro and Gen 2 look to be pretty nice, but I don't think its worth the trouble of cutting pipes and what not to get the maf in place.

 

[BISHILVR]

^^^ Agreed, but I did'nt cut any pipes since I run full speed density. I also was able to clean up my engine bay by not running a maf sensor at all, and my filter is mounted directly to my turbo and can be pulled of for track days easily.

Well with the new info about the evo maf being limited to 62lb/min I should be fine with that for now.

and to awnser your question, my car will be running pump w/meth injection. right now though I have to get the supporting mods in place first before I buy the turbo. I am the kind of guy that likes to plan ahead and know exactly what I am going to put in my car long before I'm going to buy the parts!

 

[wvturbo2]

Just bought dsmlink. A friend uses it locally with his 60-1, and everyone I've talked to loves it. I know having stand alone sounds nice, but I don't need it. Complexity is the last thing I need a good tune. The sooner i get my car tuned the better and the easier it is to adjust each time I add a mod the better. If you're interest I'll let you know how it works out for me.

 

[dsmfreak555]

Actually I am going to be purchasing dsmlink, my concern is having a maf in drawthrough however like someone stated before, I wouldn't be the first to run a draw through system on a 4" inlet tubo. I was looking at maft pro for speed density to eliminate the maf altogether!

 

[BISHILVR]

I was looking at maft pro for speed density to eliminate the maf altogether

Which is what I did, its called speed density conversion and it works great!

 

[dsmfreak555]

I believe you, However I am still going with dsmlink, hopefully version 3 has speed density!!!
