Anyone know the process for setting up nistune for the ECU to only read one maf signal, ignore the unconnected one, and not be in limp mode?

Setup is rb26, single turbo, lightning maf. I'm still waiting on getting registered on the Nistune forums. Thanks in advance.

When you are converting the maf there is a few check boxes that come up. I think one of them says half maf values (right next to adjust TP scale check box). That's the one your suppose to use for the 26.

I suppose that I would need to have both maf signals wired to the same maf then? Is that the way you performed the swap?

I'd think so might have to goggle that or check the AUS skyline forum.

Yea, I've already done a pretty exhaustive search with no concrete answers. I'll just wait to get in touch with Matt from Nistune.

Confirmed that Yellow's suggested method was correct. Just need to wire both output signals to the lightning maf.

Although, Nissan confused me on this one. Both shielded maf wires had black and white wires (signal and ground), but on one, black was the signal and white was the ground while the other was in reverse. I wired it up wrong initially because I thought they the colors would have matched, but I quickly found out this was incorrect. Just a heads up to anyone in the future.

I am planning on doing a similar thing, using a rb26 power fc on my rb25. I am wondering if I will need to remap a MAF curve or will setting all the MAF voltage ranges to 50% be enough?
