[s-cars] MAF location

[Trevor Frank]

Why bother with a maf at all, at that point?  Maf does a great job on a
closed system, like our regurgitating vent line into the intake track
before the maf, to account for all air going in or coming out, maf and
o2.  Tune the car once and as it ages at least my theory is that these
things compensate; more blow my less maf signal.  Bypass valve as well,
air is added after the maf, maf signal is reduced and all is accounted
for.  Cannot figure out why you would even want a maf after the turbo,
pitch it and go to map.  Use a map/tps etc.. to maf signal converter.

In an offline conversation with John Tilden, he asked if it would be
problematic to locate the MAF between the IC and the TB.  Anyone tried
this?  My
thoughts... Intake air temp at this point might be high enough to damage
the MAF...
and velocity through the MAF would likely be much higher due to the
higher
temps... expansion, therefore higher volume... possible damage due to
velocity?
Anyone?
