Ant MAF Magic

[petrol_1]

Just been down to A TECH and had His MAF conversion on my 2.7.

Wow impressive!

The difference is big , compared to before !

(Even my wife noticed the extra Torque,) it will pull top gear from approx 1000/ 1200rpm ( on a 3.6 diff) and drives like its got lot more cc under the bonnet.

The spread of torque is really impressive and its a lot more responsive all round too )

No problems or down side only +++

All Ants R&D Time REALLY shows ( he's a true perfectionist ) and wont give up till its Right

Cold start is perfect (even today frozen icy one !) , pulls harder than before with instant throttle response ( not like the normal elastic std e30 one )

At motor way speed the MPG meter showing 40 / 50 at light throttle 70/80 So MPG will be better too

Also hes done me LPG specific chip too , Best of both worlds

A great job ,

Many thanks Dude [/b]

Does this need to be done on a dyno or is it plug and play?

This is the next thing I do on my car

[petrol_1]

LIVE MAPPED , on mine ( but its on LPG and i had specific goals , which he achieved too )

but i beleive if you gave him the full spec whether std or tuned , i m sure he could sort you out , even in Sydney

My sequencial lpg ECU is now running more advance than std and afr of 17 / 18 :1 at idle so this is going to be so much better on fuel economy too , and we ve found that from a matched petrol to LPG fuel map this conversion is now needing approx 20 % less fuel at WOT when on LPG ,

BUT IS THE DRIVIBILTY THATS MOST IMPRESSED ME ,

Put this on your xmas list your E30 NEEDS THIS MOD

Speak to Ant a @ A TECH

[Speedtouch]

Sounds great dude. Which engine is it?

[petrol_1]

Its a M20 ETA bottom end with 731 head

I ve got a std ETA ENGINE in an e30 too & this conversion is far more torquey than a std ETA and there built for T ,

[Ajsingh]

The standard eta bottom end... Did you change the big end bearings to stronger ones ie 325i ones or did you just keep the standard eta ones?

[petrol_1]

Std ETA shells / bottom end

Just for remembed

I lighten the flywheel on this one , so the drivibilty is even more impressive than i first thought as it pulls so well

[e301988325i]

Bookmarked, Ant what MAF are you using for the conversion? A siemens E36 one?

[DmcL]

most likely.. that or a volvo one, think both are very similar, both are 4 pin anyway. actually been thinking of grabbing a 328i or M3 MAF just to see how similar and to try/compare both side by side as wel las swapping sensors/housings as i think the E36 housing is a little bigger than the volvo one. volvo one is perfectly sized to fit the standard TB elbow but its a little small for my liking, especially since i got that 64mm TB installed

So if this is a non standard engine type with an off the shelf chip, then after a live mapping session the car will be much nicer to drive.

I'm not too convinced on the maf conversion on a standard engine, but in this case where you needed a live remap anyway I'm sure it's worth it.

I've driven one of Ant's MAF converted cars and the top end was particularly impressive.

[scott180gtb]

How much does the MAF conversion cost. I will need this for my 2.8 donk.

I'd be interest too for my 28
