    i have a set of ford type2 (4 pintle) 19# injectors waiting to be put in...

    heres my outlook on some of the stuff you mentioned. A JC chip is good because this guy spent countless dyno hours getting the perfect ignition+injection maps for your car. Also not to mention the higher rev-limit. I would get a chip, but later down the road.

    21.5# injectors are nice, should give you alot of breathing room.

    I do not believe the adj. FPR will be necessary because the larger injectors will flow more fuel per injector cyle, and by using the SMT6, you can further have the injectors dump even more fuel. I feel an FPR is used in situations where you need to add/remove some fuel from the system - which won't be the case if you have the SMT6. NOW, if you are going forced induction, then definately get some kind of RRFPR - but for NA applications, you should be fine.

    But it sounds like a great setup and you should really notice a difference. I mean shit, i'm driving a slushbox and i can feel a good difference with the MAF in there...

      SMT-6 is great with fuel maps, you should be fine with the stock FPR until you get into some serious mods. Aren't you going M50 anyways?

      Anyways, you guys should look into wide band O2 sensors if you are going to do all your own tuning. They are an EXCELLENT tool.

        Alright, well Charlie mentioned on another thread that someone with a M30 AFM should get a AFPR, so I thought one with a MAF would need one also.

        As for the M50, I decided that would devote way too much of my money for just the engine. :roll: I wanna spend money on every aspect of my car, not just horspower. Like the Sparco Strut Brace I just ordered. :D

        Yeah, I'm going to look into wide band O2s.....and see what's up.

SO many people will buy it/commit to it if it's a standardized MAF conversion kit ready to go. There are a lot of people out there who have no idea what the difference between AFM and MAF is, let alone be able to figure out how to implement a MAF using the SMT by themselves.
          If they are buying SMT-6, there is a good chance that they know what a MAF is.
          Yeah but for those that don't know what the SMT6 can do, marketing it as part of a MAF conversion kit would help instead of people buying the unit and trying to get a MAF to work with it themselves...get it? I emailed Perfect Power about a year ago and they told me the SMT6 did not eliminate the need for an AFM, but I guess they should have said "metering device" instead, because we now know you can do MAF conversions with it.

            I´m gona build að MAF conversion for my friend if he keeps the M20 and doesn´t go M50, then I can market a MAF conversion,

            It will all be available next year,

                Nah,

                I will probably make a kit wich will work for a specific MAF, probably the most popular in the us, E36 325i MAF BOSCH,

                I will make the kit in a way that yoy shop the specific MAF yourself new or used, and the kit will be tuned for it,

                I might even go as far as making 3 versions of the kit, one for each diffrent MAF
                so you have a choice of 3 diffrent MAF´s

                          nice read up...
                          I got a few question for u, is smt6 needed for both 320i,328i MAF or its only the 328s.
                          and when is ur MAF kits goin to be ready?
                          Wat is the down side of runnin a 320i MAF convertion without an SMT6.

                              How much better is this setup than the M30 AFM conversion? Is it worth the money difference?
