Good view of new MAF pipe with angled connectors

Hose connectors for MAF pipe are angled which allow the use of a straight pipe

Another view of new MAF pipe

Plenty of clearance is provided from the radiator hose

Adds  a nice touch to the motor compartment while providing all the air your turbo can handle!

 

NOW AVAILABLE IN POLISHED ALUMINUM TOO!

Our 3 INCH MAF pipes are available in aluminum or chrome plated steel. Instead of using a bent piece of pipe that rarely fits correctly, we use a straight piece of pipe and make up adapters to get the correct angles for a perfect fit.  Unlike other MAF pipes on the market, ours come complete with connectors and hose clamps.  No need to shop around for these items to complete your installation. These MAF pipes  ensure an exact fit when used with our Big Mouth Cold Air Induction Systems for the 86-7 Intercooled Turbo Regals or can be used with a cone filter attached to the end of your MAF sensor.  Click here for more info on materials used.

They will fit either the stock Buick or the Chevy Impala SS 3" MAF sensor and are designed to be used with either removable inlet bell turbos similar to the stock Buick design OR the integral inlet turbos as long as the turbo inlet is 3".  If you are running a 3.5" LS1 MAF sensor or have a turbo with a 3.5" inlet I suggest you use our new 3.5" MAF pipe -Click here to go to the 3.5" MAF pipe page. The pictures above show the chrome solid MAF pipe installed on my 87 GN. The pic shows a stock Buick MAF sensor and TA49 Turbocharger.  The chrome cover on the stock MAF sensor is sold by Kirban Performance.

PICS OF A CHEVY IMPALA SS 3" MAF SENSOR
 INSTALLED ON MY GN

I tested an Impala SS MAF sensor and Translator Plus on my GN and here are a few pictures to see how it works with the solid MAF pipe.    Notice that I mounted the sensor harness for the MAF down low near the A/C pulley.  I did this to take advantage of the flat surface of the sensor so I could put one of our new  dress-up plates on it.  Rest your mouse on the pictures for more details and click on them if you want to see the full size picture. These pictures were taken before I reinstalled the up pipe!  Note that all pics are from my personal GN with a TA49 turbo with a removable inlet bell.  For the integral inlet turbos we make the longer rubber connector at the turbo.


This is a good shot of the angled adapter that attaches the MAF pipe to the turbo. Please not that these kits are designed for use with turbos that have the removable inlet bell. Closeup view of the MAF pipe. Notice how there is plenty of clearance from the radiator hose. Top view of the new style sensor.  We now offer a dressup plate that will fit the 3 or 3.5 inch Chevy MAF sensors

This pic shows how I hooked up the MAF and MAT sensor harnesses.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TURBO INLETS

Here's a good pic of how to tell the difference between a bolt on inlet bell and an integral inlet turbo. The turbo on the LEFT has an integral inlet.  The turbo on the RIGHT has a bolt on inlet.   (click on the pic to see full size)

Plain MAF pipe - As you can see these don't compare to the finish of the chromed MAF pipes.

Running a 4" inlet turbo?  We came across these 4" to 3" silicone connectors that will offer a smooth transition to the smaller inlet turbos.  This is an option to go with our 3" MAF  pipes.  Be sure to check off this option if you need this connector or you will be shipped our standard 3" connector.


Starting at $65 Order Below!
