Question Lindsey Racing Stage 1 MAF Kit?

Does anyone know more about this kit? I did a search and only found one post really talking about this kit and there seemed to be mixed information and no final conclusion. Is it just plug and play with no need for a fuel controller etc.? The post I found had several people saying yes it can just be plugged in place of the stock AFM because LR is the only MAF with calibrated voltages to equal the stock AFM, and some said no. Here is the only post I found talking about this kit exactly.

I may be wrong, but I thought the only one with voltages to match an AFM was Autothority. LR has to be run with a fuel controller such as powerperfect, where you can message the signal to work.

I think the only way to make it work without a fuel controller would be to have new chips mapped for it.

Unless they have started shipping their new in-house units (which may be smaller, not sure), the stage 1 MAF is a 3.5" unit. I got one thinking I could hook it up as a stealth unit in place of the AFM, but finding some connectors that go from 3" to 3.5" is really annoying.

I got one of those and use with mafterburner. Russell is working on it to get chip for that maf without fuel controller.

I have that kit and to my knowledge it is NOT plug and play. It is a MAF not AFM so you would need to change your chips and/or get a fuel controller. With good chips you should be able to use teh stage 1 (as long as you have a way to connect it to the turbo/vac lines).

I bought the stage 1, a used MAF pipe, 2 silicon connectors and the mafterburner all for about $740 (When LR wants $1200+ for stage 2 MAF and MAfterburner).

mafterburner/LR maf work fantastic BTW.
