Based on that wiring diagram yes that's correct, those are the only 3 wires that should be connected to the 2nd MAF acting as the IAT sensor

Thanks. What I am also trying to clarify is that both grounds will go to both sensors, while the IAT hot wire only goes to the MAF I am using for IAT. Is this correct?

The Black/White and Black/Green Wires have to go to both sensors.
The Black/Red Wire only goes to the Sensor acting as the IAT.
The Yellow/Red Wire only goes to the actual MAF

Looking for advice on my base tune. I plan to go Adaptronic shortly, but wanted something relatively "safe" so I could drive the car now. AccessTuner Race file and a data log are attached. The log was just a sample to see what fueling and ignition looked like under boost. I don't expect that my MAF is dialed in. Flame suit is on so fire away but constructive criticism is definitely appreciated...

Hey all, sorry for not updating here. I am putting this Turblown low mount kit up for sale. I started out on this quest as a winter project for earlier this year to be driving this summer, but it went longer than I anticipated. Now that I finally have nice summer weather I am enjoying the car too much to tear her apart again. I will post in the for sale section. If it doesn't sell then it will likely become a project for next winter...

Elliot has been great and really took care of things, THANK YOU ELLIOT! He even told me he would extend the warranty to the buyer. He also said the current wait time is about 12 weeks, so if someone wants one now this one is ready to go... Look in the for sale section shortly...

WOW that was quick..... I hate it when i see people give up. It really should not take more then a few weekends to get the kit installed.

I actually had it installed a few weeks ago. Made for a fun weekend. There were some minor fitment issues, which Elliot was great about taking care of, so I pulled it all off and went back to stock so I could drive it. Things are busy right now and I just don't have the motivation to put it back on. I like that I can just get in and drive now that we finally have warm sunny weather But like I said, if I don't get any takers it will be a project for next snow season when I can't drive it anyway.

Here's some photos from when it was installed, since people had asked.

Try and stick it out man. I think you will be very happy in the end. Thank you for the pics. It looks great installed. I love how the couplers were kept to a minimum.

My set up will look a bit different as my battery will be in my trunk.

No, the MAF sensor you see in the pic just before the TB is only used for IAT. The actual MAF sensor for airflow is in the intake over the crash bar. You can't see it in that photo. If you look at the photo where the intake is point up you'll see a shiny section after the filter. That is the MAF housing.

Hmm, I went back and looked at all the pics and don't see it. But that makes sense.

Can I ask what fitment issues you had? Were they resolved? I will be assisting in the install of one of these withing the next few weeks and I am curious.
