Is there anyone out there that can direct me to some "How To" articles on how to convert from VAM to MAF on like an SVO or Turbo Coupe? I read how some people have 70mm MAF on their SVO's. I read where one guy got the connector from an Escort but that's all he said. I dunno. Any help is appreciated

I believe you find more info through searching turboford...or the yahoo tuner group.

Basicly you will need an eec tuner or a J3 (chip) adapter. 90% of the change over is a custom tune for the computer.

Honestly, I'd say you are getting in too deep to do this swap right now...if I were you I'd wait.

Anyway, you need a tuner (or J3 and burner), maf, maf plug, act, act plug, PCMX software, access to a dyno or wideband 02 meter, and the know how to tune and modify the base computer files...
