Advice on my KA-T

[chrislis]

So I'm getting my turbokit installed sometime this / next week and I need to know how far / slow I should run it before I blow something... What I mean is that I am from CT, there is only one dyno I would rely on here and it's like 45 minutes away but really really pricey. Another one is in MA at UTI and my friend told me they would do it for cheap. Here's what's going into my car...

I might have forgotten something...

But what I need to know is that I am going to be picking this car up and having to drive a minimum of 45 minutes to a dyno to get tuned. Do you think I will blow something with an untuned ECU?

[SloS13]

forgot something? yeah. What are they gonna tune it with? Stock ECU won't run 370's.

[ILikeMy240sx]

yeahhh you need something to manage those injectors... atleast get a SFAC and set it approximately and get it tuned at the dyno.

[chrislis]

yup i just bought an apexi safc2 today, should be here by friday. now what about the maf sensors? i heard the're going to be nuts.

[ILikeMy240sx]

could you be a bit more descriptive about the problems associated with MAF sensors than "nuts"?

[chrislis]

hah, yeah sorry. i heard they're just gonna have problems not recognizing anything. "confused" maybe? Is there any other mod i NEED in order to help this problem or will bringing it to the dyno tune it right back to normal?

Your MAF will be fine as long as your car is not producing more than 240 hp.. I think that is the limit of the MAF or around there.

For more HP people go with 300zx MAF

[chrislis]

alright cool i should be fine with the stock MAF for now until I push more boost, and then I'll get the 300zx MAF upgrade. thanks for the info.

ILikeMy240sx already answerd that question not to mention you never specified how much boost you were going to run.

[chrislis]

i'll be running 8 pounds until i upgade my MAF.

stock mafs should be alrite then
