Since I got my wideband A/F guage, I had been somewhat concerned that my MAF wasn't "seeing" my whole shot, because I would typically run 11.9-12.1 while WOT N/A, but it would venture as high as 12.6-12.7 when spraying a 100 shot. :\

A member on another board suggested that I descreen the MAF and point the nozzle towards the MAF, instead of away from it (like it was). I had had problems in the past with the MAF freezing when I didn't point the nozzle away. Come to find out, I guess this was caused by the MAF screen.

Sure enough. After doing these two easy, simple steps, I just "tested" :devil: the new setup and it ran a nice fat, safe 11.6-11.7 when spraying a 100 shot.

I figured i'd share with those here that hadn't heard it (maybe I was the only one).

***Anyone that's running a dry shot, i'd highly recommend doing this***

Have fun,

Matt

Thats an awesome find, and very useful info. I never really thought about the MAF screen playing a role in making the MAF wires freeze.

Now all I need to do is save up money for a Nirtous System...:roflmao:

Except that won't happen because I can't save money...:owned:

awww now, come on... anyone can piece together a dry nitrous system for dirt cheap.

buy a solenoid on ebay for 50$, a nozzle for 15, and the lines , jet(s) and bottle. Id say it would be fairly easy to have a complete system with the bottle for about 250$. The good thing is that you can cobble the pieces together as money allows.

Eat out one less time a week or something and that nitrous kit is much more affordable than you think!
