I read recently that the 1G and 2G MAFT's are the same with the exception of the connector to the sensor itself, obviously.

Can anyone confirm this? I have a 1G MAFT and want to use it on the 2G. Wiring doesn't scare me at all.

2G MAFs are essentially the same thing as a 1G. They read karman, barometric pressure and air temperature BUT the 2G's cross-sectional air flow area is much larger.

The 2G MAS can basically count more air while the 1G becomes choked out early. If the car is stock, I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Actually, he was asking about the MAFTranslator.

I've heard they're essentially the same as well, but don't know for sure.

London Ont,
i have a 1g version on my 2g now. IT works fine. I just had to do the wire up, to which i used the 2gmaf in a 1g writeup on vfaq.

I also have the 1G MAFT version 2.01 on my 2G.

find the wiring diagrams for both plugs and go from there.

The wiring is the easy part, I was more concerned with the electronics in the MAFT itself. Thanks everyone. Mods, close this sh!t.
