hi just about to order a maf from full throttle an had a question
they list a 3.5 inch maf an a 85 mm maf
my turbo is 4 inch inlet so would the 3.5 be the better choice for me?
thanks

I have the 4" setup on my car with the 85 MM Z06 MAF...which requires the 3 to 5 pin adaptor...avai lable from FT. You'll also have to use a different base setting in the Translator...c an't remember which one tho. The Z06 MAF is actually 3.75" if memory serves. I ordered the proper adaptor hose from one of the speed shops up here. Think it was Karbelt.

Get a 4" MAF tube and C6 ZO6 sensor. I believe that Full Throttle sells it... here is my build for the TBSS:

I got everything off Amazon or Summit racing, the aluminum piping and silicone couplers came off eBay.
Don't over spend.

What kind of MAF pipe are you running? That'll kinda dictate what MAF, filter, etc... you can run.
With a 4" inlet on the turbo are you necking down to 3" or 3.5"?
