My MAF Conversion

[Ball325]

So far I know i need a SMT6 which i will pic up from gstuning.net

I found this

http://www.vacmotorsports.com/cgi-bin/view_item.pl?item_id=243

which im not sure if its what im looking for. It looks alot like the pictures of the 328is one i have seen. I also found an E34 one on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7921023288&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT

Im still searching for the 328is one since thats what ive seen everyone uses. If you know someone selling one, if you could let me know that would be awesome.

I know of the ones for sale at www.splitsec.com and they are nice but more money than i need to spend since i can pic up one for less than 100$ I am sure i can find one at a local shop or something.

From what i have read everyone just used the original wiring for thier AFM to hook up the MAF sensor. Or am I missing something?

I have knowledge on that a 320i MAF(E36) and a E36 328i(4pin ´9Cool and a E36 (non vanos) work

So I think that about covers all the diffrent MAF´s 3 diffrent sizes from 3 diffrent model cars,

In theory, any maf will work, it´s just a matter how long time it takes to tune each and every one,

So 525 or 325 Non-Vanos, and OBD-II 328 MAFs should work. And 528's MAFs too, etc. Just search through the Bimmer Parts for sale on Bf.c, I found 3 different ones once.

I dont know what I am looking at, I know they all work. But some have different adapters for the plug right?

No i read it im just not sure if the parts Im looking at are actually what I need. I know what Im looking for but everything ive found is like sort of what i need. Im just looking for the parts and if you could tell me seriously and truthfully that yes that is indeed the part im looking for than I wouldnt need this thread, because i would already be sure. Your just making everything take longer than it has to

the whole point of the conversion is that the MAF doesn't work with a stock 325i. You need the SMT6 to make it work. If you follow my guide as an outline, you can make almost anything work. Just think open-minded and look at the big picture. Heck, if you use a different MAF, you can make a writeup of what was the same, what was different, and give people some more options.

I have an extra 328 MAF sensor.
I have the SMT6, and from what mspiegle writes its good using the smt6

Why do you want a MAF? do you know what it does and how it works? Maybe you need to start from the basics and instead of searching by the model of the car you could try a BMW part number and cross reference if you have access to a ETK?
