Hey just wundering if there are any 2g turbo guys out there.... what does your car do when you vent? mine i have the maf before the turbo inlet so when i vent (sofar havent tested on a fully warmed up car) the car stalls, if i dont rev it again.. from what iv picked up the first gens dont have much problems venting the bov.... but i havent heard anything about the 2nd gens..

If the BOV is venting to atmosphere, it doesn't matter if its Gen 1 or 2. Is your BOV venting to atmosphere? If it is, the problem is that the MAF is metering air at the turbo inlet: At blowoff, even tho the throttle is closed, the MAF is seeing the blowoff flow, which can be substantial. EEC sees the blowoff flow, and throws fuel at the engine, but the throttle is closed, and the engine stalls because it goes pig rich.

Either move the MAF downstream of the turbo, and after the BOV, or leave the MAF where it is and recirculate the blowoff flow back to the inlet side of the turbo, so it isn't "lost".

Pretty much any blown engine will do this if air metering is prior to the compressor. The SC'd SHO's blowoff between the compressor outlet and the MAF, so its not a problem. My turbocharged SVO Mustang blowoff has to be recirculated to the turbo inlet because the air metering (MAF conversion) is on the turbo inlet.

Happy (re)plumbing,

Is a third party EMS the only way to get out of using the MAF? I have a tweecer (I havent used it at all yet, just been sitting for over a month), is there anyway to disable it?

Im stupid, shoot me.

Thanks,
Mike

and that is exactly Why i ask this question.. i Know why it does what it does... its done it on all my force feed maf cars... tho my talon didnt mind it so much for some reason... welll heres a quick update while im at it..... the maf doesnt fit anywhere under the hood... trying to figure a way to still use it without redoing everything(i ran outta cut of wheels... so any redoing cant be done).
