can i blow-through my MAF sensor?

[rbspitfire]

i have an rb20 and was wondering if i could blowthrough the meter instead of drawthrough, i know it will give me problems when the blowoff valve opens but i already have it venting to atmosphere so no worries there, just curious if anyone has done this.

blow thru is fine its how i run my rb20.

sweet, thanks thats how i run my mustang i just wasnt sure if it would be the same because its "factory" turbocharged.

+1 for blow through

-1 for blow through. It will shorten the life of the MAF. Why not just spend 15 bucks and make an intake pipe?

meh, blowthru works fine as long as the system is clean.besides my maf has been coated in oil and cleaned more times than i can count and it still works fine.
