turbo being installed as we speak

RE: turbo being installed as we speak
fordfanboy I just sent you a PM and an email in reference to the MAF sensor.
I have a video I did with my digital camera but I am having some format issue with it. I'll work on it. the only thing I do not like about the kit other than the install problems because my car is on 07 is the fact that the supplied BOV is not the type that makes the loud noise I like.

I answered your PM about the MAF but now that you mention the BOV - I forgot to mention that is the other piece of the GMS kit I think is lacking. I know of 3 guys who swapped to the BOV from the Procharger with good results.
If you want a truly SICK sound - swap to a blow through set-up and run a 50mm to atmosphere Tial!! Nothing beats the sound and performance of it!

shoot me another PM with some more specific information. The MAF in my kit was down with the intercooler and I thought it was a blow through type. and yes I am looking for a different sound and moreof itfrom the BOV. I like that classic turbo sound when you get off the gas so I would be very interested in geting all of this sorted out in one shot. What are the pros and cons to the different types of BOV's out there.

06saleen and ford fan boy. do you guyshave any pics of the location of your MAF. did you guys leave the BOV in the stock location. if we move the maf to up top with the turbo that would make it a pull through type would it not? would the BOV work correctly then or do we need to change that as well. I am strarting to get confused. most people with this kit moved the maf but everypone seems to have put it somewhere different.I am sure my tuner will figure it out but I would like to give him as much information as I can so we can get this project done.

You have to put the Mass Air Flow as close to the TB as you can so it can read lower temperatures. If you keep it close to the turbine it will retard timing from the engine in huge #'s which in turn ='s huge losses of power.

agreed. we moved it to to tube that conects to the t-body. I am not sure why it was not there to begin with. we did not move the meter and the housing just the meter. so esentially we cut a hole in the tubing add added the meter to that piece of pipe. according to the dyno graph it works like a charm. I will know more later on today.
