Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

Does anyone know how to do this mod? I heard about a resitor and hacking the MAS but that is it. I have tried searching the web but could not how to exactly do this mod. Any help will be greatly appriciated.

What do you have to tune with? What size is your turbo? And what size are your injectors? There are a few ways to do an "Al Blaha" style MAS, and it helps to know exactly what you are working with or towards.

Or you could get rid of the factory 1G MAS, and either wire in a 2g, get a GM maf, or go to a speed density system.

Chuck your MAS and throw the AIT and airflow sensor in a one-gallon coffee can with the bottom cut out. Run some 4" dryer ducting from that to the turbo and seal it all up with duct tape, you're good to go.

Shae: The car is running a PTE 56 trim turbo, 780 injectors and SAFC.

Steve your idea sounds intresting. How do I go upon finding info out on that modifictaion?

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

If you plan to use that turbo to potential the 1G and even 2G MAS are not for you.

standalone or gm trans

You can always go to a HKS VPC ;)

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

A Blaha MAS flows slightly more than a 2G MAS and roughly the same as a 3" GM MAF in draw-through setup. I ran a Blaha for many years and it was very easy to tune with.

I second Steve's idea. That will totally get you the Home-Depot award at the DSM shootout!

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

Depending on budget, I'd far recommend the VPC as well. For less than $500, it just can't be beat. If you've got the scratch and don't mind memorizing a 180 page manual, the AEM EMS is the way to go. MAS's are a pain in the ass.

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

I really like the AEM EMS but the price is a little high for my budget right now. I am just trying to get my car into the 12 sec range.

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

Blaha, 2G MAS, or GM-MAF will all suit your needs just fine. I say so the Blaha since its the cheapest route.

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

Do you have an EPROM ecu by chance?

Re: Al Blaha 1G mass modification?
 

Yep I do and it has been socketed
