What I used to do the conversion:
- Built a mini harness to go from the stock harness to the 2G MAS from
the instructions off of the VFAQ. (THANK YOU TODD!!!)This required
sacrificing a 1G MAS. Taking the connector off destroys the donor MAS. I
then pulled the connector for the other end from a spare engine harness I
had.
- 2G MAS
- Welded up Hyundai air cleaner I got from the junkyard with the appropriate
size and number of holes cut in it to mount the 2G MAS.
- Dejon Tool 1G to 2G conversion pipe.
- Stock replacement K&N filter with the original “can” cut down to
just a “ring” to hold the filter down.
Here is the harness I built.
Here is why you want to do this. More air is better.
Here is my welded up Hyundai air can I got from the junkyard. There are numerous
other ways to do this. K&N FIPK for a 3000GT or 2G DSM will work. Dejon
makes a little Plexiglas adapter also for a mere $16.00
This is the Dejon Tool 2G MAS in a 1G car adapter. Nice part, nice guy, good
support.
Here is the whole mess in the car.
The only change to the car was removing the front mounting point off the
unibody for the original air can. Two 12mm bolts – cake. The fit is tight with
the K&N I used. I have a 2G FIPK laying around (came with the 2G MAS I
bought from some guy on ebay) I may try that out to see how it fits/works. Damn
thing actually started and ran on the first turn on the key. Freaking miracle I
did it right. Observations from a putt putt drive around the block with the
450cc injectors. A/F ratio
was low off the scale at anything other than drop throttle deceleration. Gee, ya
think it’s getting more air? More whoosh sounds. Almost loud. Wicked fast
spool up to 15psi the one time I stabbed the gas.
With the 510cc injectors installed it seems to be running fine up 17PSI. Yes,
I'm watching the EGTs and A/F. It's so nice to not have that damn knock light
lit solid from 5000 to redline. |
