any way to do a MAF sensor delete?

[Chris_Harby]

I have a 98 limited 3.4 V6 and was curious to know if anyone has done or knows if it's possible to do a MAF sensor delete? Any info is greatly appreciated.

You would need a new custom ECU like haltech, or aem, or any of the other full EMS's out there. Then wire it in, run speed density, add the sensors needed and fully tune from scratch. Usually this is done for high performance applications. Not sure of any other options to delete the maf on stock ecu when it needs it for tuning the fuel map.

Sort of off topic but is there any way to do a gas tank delete, I don't like how low it hangs, and it also is heavy sometimes but not other times.

Haha sorry just had to make a joke, why do you want to remove the maf?

 

[Chris_Harby]

Thanks, I figured it would take some pretty in depth tuning to remove it, any way to relocate it else where and not mess anything up?

I want to remove it because I put a custom air intake in and it would just look a lot cleaner without the maf sensor, but I'm nto gonna worry about it now, I just didn't know if there was some quick and easy way to take it out

I would be looking at either a MegaSquirt or an AEM Infinity system. They are both typically run using volumetric efficiency tables and a MAP sensor.

LOL, if you did that, make sure you maf is installed in the intake pipe. Its pretty important.

I thought the general consensus was that all aftermarket intakes result in zero gains and introduce more harmful media to the engine than the factory intake box?

Edit: When installed on 3rd gen 4runners.

Customize the air pipe further and make the maf mount on the bottom of the pipe to clean the look up.

But they sound so good, only reason I got one. LOL. Makes romping on the trail more fun.

Perfectly valid reason. Don't tell anyone, 99% of the reason I'm doing this swap is for the noise! How long have you had yours installed?

Two words:

Deckplate Mod.

Save your money!

I should add, the links in my sig show dyno run improvements in both a supercharged as well as stock 5VZ-FE engine.

I think it's been a while since we've had a thread like this. :toilet:

Since I've owned it. Cheap eBay pipe. Better dry filter. But going to airaid and deck plate soon.
