  1. My Maft had the 2g plug on it. I do understand you, the wires do line up the same but there are 5 wires on the Maft side and 6 wires on the stock harness, so one is not used in the stock quest wiring, and that is why I left the green/red wire out because if I did have plugs on both ends it would be going to an empty hole on the Maft side.
  2. Well I'm wiring the Maft directly into my stock harness so the 1g conversion doesn't help, I was just confused on what to do since the translator has 5 wires while my harness has 6. But from what I've read I found out that that top green/red wire from the stock connector is left unconnected from the translator since the translator uses a fixed barometric pressure voltage. Also, I just got a wideband so I'm going to install that and see if my problem may be occuring if my translator settings are really far off, and if not, I'll look into moving the translator to the post-turbo side of my intake since there doesn't seem to be any other cause.
  3. Yea I know I need a wideband but I have been focusing my car budget on other more important things since this is my daily driver and I need it to get me to work, so in the meantime I'm driving it very lightly. And I have an evo3 16g. And as for moving the MAF, I'm going to try a few other little things first to see if they can fix this problem first, but if not I'll move the sensor whenever I can find some free time after work.
  4. Yea I did all of that and I'm still having the same issue. No I don't have a wideband but I'm going to get one soon. And yes my speedo works, but it's 9mph slow at 70mph. And I think I can clear the insulation fine if I put the sensor right before the tb. I guess I'll find out.
  5. I looked and my blow off valve does not leak while idling. I still need to reset my ISC/TPS to see if that helps at all. I'd like to leave my MAF where it is before the turbo, but if none of these other things fix it, I guess I'll cut into my ovcp so I can put it there.
  6. I have my 16g boosting up to 15psi, but would that affect anything since I have the issue no matter what boost level I hit?
  7. Don't a lot of people install it pre-turbo though and have no issues? Maybe it's because the hks is a pull type bov? I am getting a pretty bad flutter with it so that makes sense...
  8. Well I plugged the oil sperator back in and now my entire pcv system is in place the way it is stock but I'm still having the issue. I'll reset my isc but it just doesn't seem like that would be my problem. Could it be my maft wiring? I was a little confused when I spliced it to the stock harness, I used all of the stock wires except for the green/red stripe wire from the top row of my MAF plug, I used the green/red stripe wire from the bottom row instead since its the one that uses the IAT signal I believe.
  9. Yes I did remove the negative cable. I'll plug the oil seperator line in and see if that does the trick then.
  10. It's a GM unit and yes I am using someone else's settings right now. I have a stock fuel system with a big 16g, hard pipes, hks bov, and 3in exhaust, and my settings are: Aux: 0 Base: 2 Idle: 1 Mid: 2 WOT: C I feel like it wouldn't be an ISC issue though because everything worked perfectly fine until tonight when I installed the maft.
  11. Okay, so I just installed a 3" gm maf and maft and when test driving it I noticed that when I press the clutch to decelerate the rpms drop rather quickly and it dies. I don't think it has anything to do with the maft settings, I have a feeling that I either messed something up when I took the charcoal canister out, or would leaving the hose that recirculates/vents the pcv system back into the intake just sitting open where it vents to the atmosphere be a possible cause? I feel like this has to be a simple issue that I overlooked but I just can't seem to track the problem down.
  12. Okay let me know. I'll take it if you decide to ship.
  13. Would you be willing to ship it? If so I'm interested.
  14. I am interested, can you post some pics please?
