4cylFury Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Has anyone put one on an 86. And did it work without boost cut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amonje123 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 I'm running just the maf translater and I don't have any boost cut on my 86. I'm sure you can run it with an afc with the same results pretty sure reading on here of people doing it already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4cylFury Posted October 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 I need info on the wiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Cary Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Look up changing from a 4 pin maf to the later style 6 pin. Then after you use that to know what to connect the wires to the maf translator instead of the 6 pin mafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amonje123 Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Yes I did hard wire it. The link above is one of the links I found to give me a clue to hook it up. But everything is not there. You still have to figure out witch wire on the maf translater itself goes to the stock 4 wire maf. Took me about 2 days to figure it out once I figured out witch one is signal power ground blah blah. I'll make it easy for you here you go 86 maf. Maf translator Red. PinkBlack. BlackWhite/blk. GreenGrn/red. Brown Your going to run into another problem tho because the Map sensor is still giving a reading to the ecu. It will still cut at 12 13psi. What I did next was installed a 4.3v ziner diode in the ecu to block the signal from the map. I learned how to do that from seaching the forms.Then the fuel cut was gone.Another problem came up when I hit 14psi my afr would lean out. My guess was since I was blocking the map signal to the ecu it wasn't seeing passed 12psi and wouldn't add fuel. I unplugged the map sensor and it fixed that problem. Now I can boost as much as I want.Had it up to 22 psi on a 16g and my current set up now is a 17c on 15psi. I've had it up to 20 psi before and all ran good.

Where is the MAP sensor so I can disconnect it?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucw458 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Attached to the metal plate next to the brake booster. It looks just like the metal plate the wiper motor bolts to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
