Default well the VR6 maf has a much higher threshold and the readings are more detailed.

the 1.8t maf is a piece of **** basically.

Default Yeah i think anything that costs 350 bucks and dies after 30K miles is a POS

how did you get the programming done, or i should say by who.

Default garrett did it. the new ATW PES chip is calibrated for it and new injectors. we are also

going to calibrate the chip to use an N75 J valve instead if the ****ty C valve.

the new chip for the AWM 2001 cars will use a TT225 maf.

Default well i am making about 240whp @ 1.1 bar 91 octane the car drives like a completely stock car

no idle issues what so ever (A/C, smog pump, cold/hotstart). i have only dynoed 1.1 bar because i have a gimp wastegate and have been waiting for god knows how long for a new one.

Default install has been postponed...

blew the turbo gasket....again. Spent the weekend repairing that.

The instructions aren't exactly world-class, so I still need to figure out how to wire this thing up.
