    Translator/maf Problem

    Thanks for the suggestions--I'll do some more tests tomorrow. Are there any numbers that I can use to be sure that I have the correct MAF?

    Translator/maf Problem

    Code 33 -- higher MAF reading than expected. It's supposed to be an Impala SS MAF. I have tried setting the 1st button to both "3" & "0". I unplugged the ECM after changing the setting. The results were the same.

    Translator/maf Problem

    I recently purchased a used Translator and a used MAF off from EBAY. I installed both last night and am getting a service engine light. TurboLink show that the MAF reading at idle is 11 to 12. I have the first three switches on the Translator set to on and the 4th is off. Any suggestions...

    what kind of HP #'s?

    Still haven't finished this setup. I ruptured a disk in my lower back while switching the intake and turbo and haven't been able to lean over the fender to finish the project--still have Poston headers, 2 1/2" ATR downpipe, and Hooker exhaust system waiting to go on the car. It doesn't spool...

    what kind of HP #'s?

    Don't have a part #. I bought it two years ago through Ron's Custom Automotive in NJ. It was $675 plus my old turbo. His phone # is 800-718-7667.

    what kind of HP #'s?

    I have a TA-49 in the hotair housing from Limit Engineering and it was a direct bolt-on. You will need to port the elbow and the turbo to intake adapter.

    ramchargers dual radiator fan

    Does anyone know if the fit would be the same on an '85--are the radiator dimensions the same? Also, how much power (amps) does this thing draw--would my stock alternator be adequate? I'd like to convert my hotair to an electric fan.

    3" Down pipe from ESP

    Does anyone have any experience with this vendor? I need a new hood insulator pad. How about the 3" downpipe? Does it fit? Can they deliver?

    Bad Maf??

    Mine both started and idled better with the MAF unplugged. It would also start with the bad unit connected. Don't know if there are circumstances where a bad unit would keep the car from starting. Talked to Postons this morning about exchanging the defective Tomco unit--no problem, they...
