JL 300zx Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 I am installing a duel cold air intake. Do I need two MAF sensors? Or can I get away with Just one connected to the left or right filter? Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 On what? If it has two separate throttle bodies/intake plenums then yes you will need two. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 If it has one MAF then you don't need dual air intakes. If it has left and right side it should have MAFs already. Cold air intakes bring air from in front of the radiator to the MAF(s) Quote Link to comment
JL 300zx Posted April 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 It’s on my 300zx it was two throttle bodies on the plenum yall know the rest then it connects under my nose panel but I was gonna run two filters through one for left throttle body vise versa. I know z1 sells a dual kit but it doesn’t have another maf and on my friends he did the same thing but only ran one maf and he still gets the same fuel mileage and same pickup rate when accelerating Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 You need to be measuring what ever air your putting in the engine. Been a long time since I was under the hood of Z32, because I hate working on them. Stock you have a single MAF because all the air coming in is measured there then split to each side. If you run separate intakes and only put that MAF on one you are only measuring the air coming into one plenum. The Z1 stuff has an optional balance tube for that reason.... It will work... but its not necessarily an improvement. up to you. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Have to ask, where is the air coming from that goes into the two throttle bodies. If in front of the radiator, replacing them is a waste of time and money. It already has cold air. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 The stock Z32 intake location is in front of the core support between the headlights. Quote Link to comment
