Questions about "blow-through" setup

hi, I'm wondering what I all need to run a blow through setup. Thanks Zach

Blow Through , the most popular, is when the MAF itself is in the upper IC pipe. This is beneficial for 2 reasons. First, it eliminates a restriction before the turbo; and second, you can VENT YOUR BOV , which everyone loves , by putting the sensor after the BOV and allowing backed up charge air to be vented before it is measured. *on a side note, NO, you cannot configure your stock MAF sensor to be used as a Blow through sensor. The operation of a Karmen Vortece MAF sensor cannot operate in this manner, and the sensor itself is not built to withstand any positive pressure.* Blow Through sensor placement has been discussed and still, no deffinative answere has been reached. As a rule of thumb, the sensor should be somewhere on the straight portion of your UICP, at least several inches before the bend into the throttle body.

If I was just to get the gm maft for my car and set it up blow through would I need to tune the car? Or is that only if I was to get bigger injectors or something along those lines? I just dont want to get the set up and have to buy an afc at the same time just to run it.
