    Default Martin Bacon, genius

    My MAF before Martin Bacon, Genius. Rather crude mockup wiring, no?



    My MAF after Martin Bacon, Genius. Slickly wired into the injector tray and looking total factory.



    ...and it only took 1 1/2 hours. Martin Bacon, Genius.

    Default It was fun. It did take a skooch longer, I think.

    Does the 'new' fan still work?

    Anyway, I'll take any opportunity to post irrelevant picture of my m30.

    Default Yup. It's *Bruno's* MAF. :)

    Right off his now departed 535...

    The Racing King kit is nice. Bruno includes a nice harness you can quickly plug in or you can use the Martin Bacon, Genius, custom method.

    Martin's got some numbers for his with old setup. I have yet to run mine through. Maybe we'll arrange a dyno day sooner or later. We'll let Craig and his turbo blow us right out the side door....
