Hey guys, has anyone here ever used a MAF Translator Pro? On anything, BMW or otherwise. I have a few questions regarding install and wiring.
I just wired one into my WAR chiped 404 DME to get my M60 on Speed Density.
The wiring:

Everything is pretty straight forward and all wires are readily available in the dme compartment. Except for RPM signal. I believe the MAFT Pro is looking for a 5v RPM signal.
I've currently got the MAFT hooked up to the OE M60 crank sensor, but it's not delivering what the MAFT is looking for. I was hoping I could tag off one of the ignition coil triggers from the DME but I believe I'd need to convert the pulsed coil -12v/ground over to a square wave 0v-5v and I did find an inexpensive converter called the AutoSportLabs CoilX rpm input adapter, but it's on back order. Does anyone know of another tach adapter that will do what I need? Am I on the correct path? Thank you.
BTW: The RPM signal going to the ABS computer is a 12v low rpm to 0v high rpm variable voltage. I'm afraid I can't use it.
