Anybody know how close you can mount the MAF to the turbo?

Can you Retro fit the sensor part to a normal boost pipe?

What MAF would i need for max 380-400bhp?

should I steer clear of the ebay fakes?

If you didnt guess by the first 2 questions the space I have is VERY restricted

Thanks for your help

i thought somewhere someone said about 10" from the turbo, but dont quote me on that.

im sure you can mount just the sensor in the pipe if you can get it to fit. It work like a blow through.

N62 MAF will work

i've never heard of an eBay fake, but yea steer clear lol

I tried mine about 3-4 inches from the turbo.....ran like poop. Moved it out about 12 inches, and it was fine
