Question Ok, ARC-2/Autometer air fuel guage/Ford 5v MAF/IAT sensor - anything else I need?

I want to replace the AFM with a MAF, I have:

ARC-2 signal modifier

Ford 5v MAF

Bosch compatible IAT sensor

Autometer air fuel ratio display for use with narrow-band O2 sensor

I think I have everything I need to install and calibrate the MAF for use in my car. Can anyone think of anything I have forgotten? I have already machined the MAF to fit right into the stock J-boot and the MAF is the one that will already work with the Motronic DME. I have the ARC-2 and the air fuel meter to fine tune the signal that it generates.

Other than that, the Maxtronic is going in the 951 track car - I need something simple for my 944 NA daily.

Honestly, I wouldn't use the ARC-2. It's ANCIENTtechnology!

Yes, I know - but it's going in a 944NA that is never going to generate more than 150hp. I am planning on using the maxtronic and the tuning software in the 951 track car I have been hired to build.


What I would like to know is if it seems that I have all the neccessary components for a simple MAF conversion on a late 944 - that's all.......

only thing I would change is the narrowband sensor. You really need a wideband for this. The narrowband sensor will only truly work at WOT.
