Stillen Air to Air setup

JWillis72 · 11-17-2015, 08:21 PM

We talked about that tonight and they are checking it tomorrow. We looked at it together but I was checking it against the Stillen y pipe but I realize now it should be the opposite.

I bet you that's the problem! Let me know. You can't just flip them though, but you can mod the maf housing to get it to work.

What did you need to mod?

Specialty Z is going to tune the car. They want a new 3 bar MAP sensor installed so we ordered it today. I couldn't be happier to have them involved.

Good. Seb should be able to get things straight for you.

When the kit first was installed I took it to a tuner that I really like but the car kept going into limp mode while coasting. That tuner called Seb and he said make sure they installed the piece that blocks the filter. They had not and that solved it, so I have faith in him already.

Are you now 100% sure the maf housing conductor slot faces air flow?

First installed like oem install? That won't be a problem Anymore since your blowthru vs pull.

I haven't looked but make sure the depth of mafs and angle are legit. Also check for funk or gunk on the sensor conductors. If your going map I guess this is a moot point.

Make sure your fprs is ranged also. But if your old tuner couldn't get that right then....

Can you add more input on the correct MAF housing conductor slot? I thought there was only one way to do it. Please clarify as I am now paranoid I did it wrong. I just put them in and tighten them down in the BP kit the same way I took them out. Pics, drawing, or pop up book style would greatly appreciated.

They only fit one way but because my pipes are custom the mounts could be welded on backwards.

with your kit the mafs are mounted properly and can only go in one way.
cant mess it up. I have a feeling they replicated the stillen intake pipe which wont work with the air to air.

I had to much going on at work today to go by the shop so I don't know about the MAFs yet. I will try to go by tomorrow if I can get away. The MAP will be here tomorrow so maybe we can get her to idle. The car has been stressing me out but knowing it's being tuned right as made me a lot less worried. I can't wait to drive her again!

TopgunZ · 11-18-2015, 08:54 PM

Snap me a pic of your maf sit rep if u want.

Thinking more about this...

Something has to be way, WAY off for this thing to not idle. It's crazy your trying to base map it with issues much less WOT tuning.

Check things like your vvel harness clips, plug clips, throttle bodies, etc...

If everything is solid, it will idle fine with the tune you had even.

JWillis72 · 11-19-2015, 08:06 AM

If I can get away from work today I will take pictures. Strange thing is that the tune that was on it the car idled, it was pig rich but it idled. That is when I started questioning the tuner, every base map he tried was never as good as the uprev tune.
