what do i need electrically to install a lS1 maf, i am replacing stock maf unit. i have a trans. gen2. both maf units are 3-wire. do they basically wire up the same way? grnd./signal/+ ?
If you've got a GenII Tanslator and an 3.5" LS1 MAF already, you'll also require a 3pin late model GM plug to 3pin GN socket adapter to be able to connect this MAF to your Buick....you can get this from Full Throttle (part # 050BUICKADAPT)List Price: $23.99 EACH
What MAF Pipe are you using? May be a good time to get rid of your stock flex pipe set up.....You may wish to upgrade to a hard maf pipe in either 3" or preferably 3.5" in your case as this will match your set up perfectly....then you'll need the 3.5" silicone cplgs or reducers to adapt to this pipe too. While you're spending some money...might as well get his 4" cold air intake kit to finish off with a bang. You can get the MAF pipe and the rest of the stuff req'd from Mark Hueffman at TR Custom Parts (www.buickgn.com).
Once you go this route you'll be very happy and won't look back!
i do not have adapter harness. i bought everything from fullthrottle here on this board. maf (new) in box. can never get ahold of anyone there to talk to. they could probably sell alot more parts if i could.

I really can't move the maf pipe at all because the alternator bolt that also holds the intercooler bracket is too long the maf pipe actually rests on it.
