Well the MAF should be tuned with the rest of the system.

The TB you shouldn't have any problems as long as you switch out the IAC

I think he means just switching it over. You will need to get the MAF calibrated to your injectors though.

Click to expand...

Not the IAC, you mean the TPS (throttle position sensor). The instructions will tell you.

is it a lightning MAF? If so then you can have it adjusted through your computer, if its aftermarket they use sample tubes to trick the computer into thinking it has something different...not as good as a direct computer tuning. Find a SCT dealer etc to get a tune.

By 65mm TB, I'm assuming you mean the twin bore BBK.

As for the MAf, don't bother. If you haven't pegged your stock MAF electronically, you'll just lose power.

ok well i did do the tb, and the cable seems too tight and the gas pedal kinda sticks at like 1300 rpm's and then it goes back to normal...could it just be the TPS? should i jsut try adjusting it somehow? also how should i adjsut it? thanks...im jsut goin to wait to put the MAF on when i put my blower on that way i can jsut get it tuned....
