Guys just wondering if there was a big differance in the Series 1 ELXR8 MAF and the Series 2 ELXR8 MAF. How much bigger was the EL2 compared to the EL1. I have been told the EL1 was 55mm and the EL2 is 58mm. Can anyone confirm this?

Is it worth me swapping my MAF for an EL2 or should i focus on obtaining an AU MAF housing

Both ran the same MAF, which is about 55mm at the smallest point. There is probably no point changing to a larger MAF until you have some other mods done first, but then upgrading to an AU one or aftermarket C&L or GMS one will give you a decent improvement.

Mods done to the car are included in my signiture. Light see if i can get a hold of an AU 70mm and swap my electronic.

Missed that, yeah you would see a decent power increase I would think. Instead of the AU MAF, look at the C&L ones from the US, even with freight etc it will still work out cheaper than the AU one and is a better unit. Summit racing stock them for $125US so you are probably only looking at around $250 all up. Link http://store.summitracing.com/partde...%2D8A101%2D021

Go for a MAF about 70mm Thomas! Would really complement the rest of your setup. You know what's bad about having all those mods and having your intake choked up by a small restrictive MAF.

Looks good this one. Can this bolt onto the standard airbox?

I have an large MAF already laying around but im not 100% sure exactly what model Mustang its off. Can anybody recognize it?

philstoj · 02-03-2004, 03:07

dunno about that one.. looks similar to cl one..

EDXR8 · 02-03-2004, 04:02

Thomas, the one in the pic looks like an older GT Cobra MAF, similar to what was used on the EB GT and ED Sprint.

Philstoj, I have ordered from them before. You do not get import taxes or duty until you reach $250AU wort of goods (not including freight etc). Summit charge a packing fee for overseas orders of around $25US, you can find out the exact cost on there site somewhere.
