Default New 88mm MAF Housing Available... (82mm to 90mm)

This is my new 88mm MAF Housing, what a beauty! made by Buenh Enginnering.

For those interested in semi-customized MAF Housing (82 to 90mm size available), for either Bosch ot Hitachi MAF Sensor. Made out of a solid CNC Aluminium block.

Default Typically Hitachi MAF is less prone to failure than Bosch, but for big power setups, Bosch is...

the preferred part.

Default It's basically what you need if you change your Injectors for bigger HP application.

This 88MAF supports approximately up to 650hp with a Bosch Sensor. You basically match a MAF Housing size with the Injectors, in my case Ford Lightning Greentops 42#. The combo of both gives you the possibility to keep your current software programming (GIAC ECU) and raise the performance bar.

Customized chip are always a better solution but obviously cost more or simply not available.


Answer to your question : No, the sensor won't last longer... However, rebuilt Bosch sensor are sold for around $50 at the steelership and are under a 7-yr warranty program. Hitachi are way more reliable but Bosch are better designed for high-HP setup and scalling (the sensor is more precise, thus less throttle hickups and smoother delivery on high-hp cars.)

Default Yes

K04 software exists coming from AWE/GIAC, APR, MTM and in beta version REVO.

However, plain jane K03 GIAC XR software on Octane 91/94 runs perfect with K04 ; just need to adjust the fueling, with this MAF and injectors.

K16 and K24 can also use both.

Like any other Customized MAF Housing... Around $250 I would say.

Default as you might know, I have a shop manufacter brake brackets

if I could get ahold of your maf housing for a few days, I could get an estimate on cost of making one of those, see if it'd be worth it (group buy afterwards, etc.). is that $250 US?
