Default 958.2 S/GTS Diverter valve-vent to atmosphere?

I will do a write up on swapping the diverter valves on my 2015 Cayenne S with the 3.6L V6 twin turbo at a later date. I installed the Forge Diverter kit that is available for the Cayenne Turbo. I followed https://rennlist.com/forums/cayenne-...placement.html but found the diverters are not in the same place as the Turbo. It took a while to figure it out and the drivers side took forever. Question: Does this car not have a MAF? I looked at all the piping/intake/IC and was digging online- I don't see a MAF on the engine- is that right?

I was under the impression it may have a MAF, but saw it's a MAP based engine. This means I can vent to atmosphere without any issue to the system since its MAP based. Anyone able to confirm?

The base V6 definitely uses a MAF, but not sure on the Cayenne Turbo. I know some are not a fan, but I am used to having BOVs on my turbo cars and love the BOV sound. Boost is currently holding much better than the leaking factory diverters. They were fine until I tuned the car, experienced leaking diverters and the 'honking' that are normally discussed by the Cayenne Turbos with tunes. After the upgrade, the cayenne pulls harder and smooth.

Where did you get access from to the DV's? Was it from the Top? I am planning to tackle this next weekend so any pointer would be helpful.
