May just have to go with that MAF-T Pro. I didn't realize it had that many features.

The documents on that website show that the 1g translator is different than the 2g & 3/s translator (same type).

This has to do with the difference in airflow sensor.

What are your thoughts on speed density with the Translator Pro? I am considering just eliminating a MAF altogether.

I haven't had much luck with the Pro, but the last time I used one was over 4 years ago, maybe there has been software updates since then.

What issues did you have with it? From what I have been reading, a lot of people on 3si seem to love it, even over eManage ultimate.

Not sure if it was install error, but I had one come in that didn't seem to do shit, it was pretty much a brick when it came to trying adjust items :rollinglaugh:, actually it may have been easier to tune that car WITH a brick.

The installed seemed okay, but who knows if they toasted the translator with an improper install, then fixed it.

Haha alright, well that sounds like a fairly isolated issue.

Update: Decided to go speed density with the MAFT-Pro. Got a boomslang harness made and the translator unit for $250 total. Engine is out right now, seems like rings went out on a piston, car smoked very badly even at idle. Just have to get a few more parts purchased (including repurchasing 550 injectors, got scammed on 3Si). Will probably make a project thread at some point.

Get the ignition timing harness stuff in there too, so you can pull timing with the MAFT Pro.
