MAF & plug upgrade for MY K04

You dont need a Maf

Are you running 1 range colder plug which most people use on chipped cars

**Pommie** · 12-10-2011, 02:34 PM

No but I will get some, not sure which I used to run Iridium in my bikes but not sure on the cars?
I thought I needed a 3in MAF but if not even better - cheers

Do you have a 4bar FPR

**Pommie** · 12-10-2011, 04:04 PM

Yes I do have a 4bar FPR, also seat intake, Pipercross airfilter, BOV, de-cat turbo back 2.5in exhaust with rear collector box removed and std muffler.

So you should be in business

Why are you not happy with it?

Pommie, I originally contacted ECS and they said there is a MAF for the 225hp Audi TT that has the 3" external and 2.75 internal dimensions which is what you need. Unfortunately they sent the wrong one which was the same as the polo. I never bothered returning it and passed it on to Jimmy. So try ECS again and see if they can measure one for you then ask for the part number and compare with the one I gave Jimmy to make sure it's different.

Either way you are faced with the problem of the TIP being 2.75" external dimension and also the top of the stock air box. The other option is to use a custom 3" MAF housing with a silicone reducer pipe and a 3" pod set up like I just did seen here

If you're looking at the Custom Code stage III tune you need the MAF from what I understand.

Right, sounds like you've got most of it sorted... Def CC, but sounds like you've already made that call...

Going to be a nice toy once its done, i'd chuck in a sports cat to avoid potentially massive fines...
