Once mastered the tuning process becomes easy and simple the only minus is the software it does need to be updated.

I'm pleased with it's performance and programability. I first progremmed it at a dyno run with lart951. Now, after a MAF failure, I'm programming it again to match the replacement MAF.

Hi Claus, nice to see you around. What happen to your maf?

I have the Lindsey Racing/Pro-M MAF with PowerPerfect. Well, what I thought was a MAF failure reappeared this last weekend at the track. I had recently replaced the LR MAF with a used Pro-M and then had the same symptom in the 98 degree heat. That is, the car would go into idle mode and any increase in RPM went full lean. I felt the PowerPerfect and it was so hot that I just barely hold it. That means that it was around 150 degrees F. That should not have been too hot except that something is failing in the heat. I removed the PowerPerfect front and rear covers for flow-through ventilation and moved it from the passenger footwell to the roll cage at the center of the door. No further problem so I will add air cooling to it and also to the DME and KLR that are still in the footwell.

Thanks for the input, I'll probably mount mine under the dash.
On a side note, I bought a used one off a RennLister.
Anyone have a connection diagram ??
I would like to forgo pulling the harness all the way to the maf and
wire it directly into the DME harness.

The Power Perfect controller connector has four wires attached. The red wire is 12V switched power and can be connected to DME pin #18 red/yellow wire. The black wire is ground and can be connected to DME pin #6 Yyllow/red or any ground. Find the DME green/red wire from pin #7. Cut this wire and attach the yellow PP wire to the MAF side and the orange PP wire to the DME side.

I have a couple of neck coolers, the long cloth tubular bandanas that swell up when immersed in water. I had them ready to wrap around the housing if air flow didn't cool it enough.
