Maf
I install the MAF kit and the Chips and connect the ARC2 but are in 0, and now I don't feel any diference!!!
Why??? With the MAF and the chips don't increase the power or I need to set the ARC2 too¡???

explain more? If everything is at "0" on the ARC2, then are you for sure you have it installed correctly? When installing a MAF kit and chips there will have to be some fine tuning with the ARC at least that has been my experince so far. What chips are you running and whos MAF kit do you have? Have you tried adjusting the ***** on the ARC yet?
I misread the subject line (AMAF) and thought I was in for a laugh...Trending Topics

If you put the chips in wrong the car would not start and would probably fry the chips. Just putting a MAF in the car and running the same amount of boost is not going to give you a huge gain. Once you tune the car you should be able to pick up some extra HP. What chips were you running before the MAF?

"Just putting a MAF in the car and running the same amount of boost is not going to give you a huge gain."
I agree with Tom here. We've got enough emperical data that shows the MAF alone is worth 30hp at the same boost when removing the restrictive AFM. Usual data for K26/6 is 230-240rwhp 18psi with AFM, 260-270rwhp with MAF. On the K26/8 TurboS, it's typically 260-270rwhp @18psi with AFM and 290-300rwhp with MAF. The TurboS keeps its 30hp advantage when upgrades are done.

So are your new ones. I can get you another +20hp with chips alone...

Look I buy the Maf kit and that kit bring new chips.......I change mine and put the new ones.
Saturday I'm going to install 55 lbs. injectors but I don´t know what ohms need to have in that injector with the ballast.
Only with MAF and CHIPS, I don´t feel any diference on my car.

If you are still running the stock turbo the 55 lb injectors are not needed. If you run the 55 lb injectors with chips that were not setup to run bigger injectors you are probably going to be more unhappy with your car.
