a MAF question

[Birdy]

hi iv been reading alot in peoples build threads about changing the MAF for that of a vr6. my question is my car has a duff sensor and as im planning on modding the car with hybrid turbo and other surporting mods would my car run ok if i was to replace it now with a vr6 MAF so i dont have to pay for the replacment when the time comes or will it cause problems as no other work has been carried out??

You don't need one... you have a larger MAF as you have an S3..

i seen that you had fitted a vr6 MAF after weeks of trawling lol. was this due to the size of the turbo you are running?

I haven't got a VR6 MAF, I have an S4 MAF housing and S3 sensor... and yeah, its because of the size of the turbo ;P

On a hybrid the std S3 MAF is more than enough
