yes, a maf based car will peg a stock NA maf at 5 volts under boost. you will undoubtedly need to upgrade to the larger mass airflow sensor.

With MegaSquirt you will not need a MAF at all. MS uses an on board map sensor to calculate required fuel.

If you need to know more about megasquirt, I am VERY knowledable with it. Let me know.

i just reread the information provided on the site about MS and sure enough it says just chuck the MAF sensor because it is not requried anymore. hey tell me the pros and cons you have encountered with the MS system, please.
