Pics of MAF Setup (GM MAF + translator)

[VroomPshhTsi]

I read up a ton on this, and I just want some pics to make sure I got it all right. Here's the deal, I have a 95 talon tsi awd and I'm trying to setup the Blow-thru (BOV vents to atmosphere, i have an RFL ). Can I see some engine pics of people with this setup? This is what I'm getting (is this all I need?):

GM 3" MAF
MAF Translator (where can i find version 2?)
Dejon Tool UICP (custom w/o BOV dump tube, flanged for turbo xs)
Dejon Tool Intake Pipe (with K&N filter)

Is install difficult at all (any relocating)?

Thanks...

Thats basically all you will need. The dejon upper IC pipe for the MAFT makes things very simple and install should be a breeze. Not sure what you mean by "custom w/o BOV dump tube" for the IC pipe though, but thats appropriate for the intake pipe. Version 2 is being shipped at this point, go to http://www.fullthrottlespeed.com to get it from the source and check out http://www.fullthrottletech.com for MAFT support.

Yea, minus that custom part. After I get those parts and all, is there any "tuning" required? I could use a couple pics too.

I would not advise running a MAFT setup unless you have some sort of datalogger so you can tune accurately. Even if you install the maft and leave it at all zeros to emulate a stock setup, most likely the car will not be "in tune".

they show setups with a 16g and don't show an RFL, but you get the picture.
there's something about cutting the clutch line bracket, but i have an A/T and didn't have to cut anything.

i have the blowthrough setup with an RFL as well.

Yea, I'm probably going to take a pass on the blowthrough setup, it would cost me about $500 in parts alone. Anyone know what type of quarter mile you'd expect from a 95 tsi awd w/following mods:

ACT 2600 Clutch w/XACT flywheel
Intake
Boost Controller (let's say it's set at 15 psi)

Also, I'm gettin a 14b turbo with 60K miles on it and it has been ported, no chips or shaft play. How much will it help over my stock turbo with 91K on it? What should I set for the boost level on the ported one with 60K when I do get a boost controller?

A blowby uicp and maft combo isn't necessarily more expensive than the alternatives...
Option A: BB UCIP, $200. MAFT w/used maf $230. PDA w/cable and software $70-100. Gives you a very high flow maf, very tunable with v2 of the maft, and can be very accurate with logger. 500-530.

Option B: Standard UICP, $200. SAFC $300. PDA w/cable and software (still want a logger, even with safc) 70-100. Granted this is a tried and true setup, nothing wrong with going this way. It's just not cheaper or necessarily better at $570-600.

Get it, that is the same setup I got. Its very easy to install... If i had a digicam Id show you some pics, unfortunately I do not... But you will be very happy with it, great performance gains and it sounds awesome too!
