Hey

I'm new to this performance stuff so I need some help on a few things. First my car is a 96 Eclipse GS-T. I have an Injen Intake, Greddy BOV and putting on Dejon UICP, MAF-T, and 3' GM MAF blow through. I don't have anything to tune with so I don't know how to adjust my MAFT safely or can I still tune? What should I get to tune with. I don't have a laptop or palm.

I work on cars all the time so I know what I'm doing but I have never done performance upgrades especially on turbos. I know electrical very well on cars since thats my job especially audio.

Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Jessie
 
Let me guess, a $600 dollar venting price tag. :toobad: Set the maft to stock injectors and you should be fine, what's more important is a boost gauge as the new bov will change your boost level.
 
In this order:
1) Logger (you'll need it when you turn up the boost)
2) Boost Gauge
3) Boost Controller
4) Cat-back exhaust system

I would have gone with the above before investing in a MAF/MAFT setup. Ebay has datalogger kits for 2Gs.
 
Thanks guys

Well the real reason for the maft setup was because I was being a newbie. I vented my bov to atmospheric before thinking of the effects. So I bought everthing else to fix my mistake. I will never put another part on before I do research. Ive learned my lesson.

Can I tune the maft without any sort of logger? Or will it be OK at the normal setting. My boost gauge and controller are definitely next though.

Thanks again guys

Keep the info coming
