[QUOTE="kevster30, post: 52874, member: 10"] 1) Any particular model of MAF that I must go for? [i]In theory, any MAF will do but for appearance's sake, I recommend getting one from any of the M50 engines.?[/i] 2) What is piggy back? Why is it neccesary? [i]A piggy back refferes to an additional ECU that is neccessary to decode and control the signals from the MAF so that your existing ECU can understand the signals.?[/i] 3) How much should it cost? [i]You have to shop around but market price for a used MAF would coast around RM250-RM350, a piggy back ECU anywhere from RM1.8k-RM2.5k.?[/i] 4) Anyone wif related experience you want to share on the pros and cons? [i]Pros: Increased performance >5bhp and drivability Increased tunability, can reconfigur your fuel mapping and ignition timing.?[/i] [i]Cons: Tendency to drive faster, hence increase in risk and consumption:)!?[/i] [/QUOTE]
