Abaco's Universal DBX Mass Air Meters work with both frequency and voltage based vehicles. This inludes Audi, BMW, Ford/Mercury, GM, Honda/Acura, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan/Infinite, Porsche, Subaru, Toyota/Lexus and VW (0-5 volts, 5-0 volts, 6 - 300 hertz, 300 - 1200 hertz and 300 - 1500 hertz).

Digital meters work great with draw through or blow through applications and feature a built-in Digital Response Filter which is used to filter out much of the "noise" associated with mass air flow sensors without sacrificing response time to air flow changes. This, in-turn, dramatically improves vehicle drive-ability with those experiencing camshaft intake reversion or pressure surge (for turbo and/or superchargers). Multi-sensor design allows the meter to be installed in any configuration, at any clock rotation with little or no signal deterioration.

DBX meters can be programmed to hold up to 10 mass air calibrations and can be re-flashed to change calibration with FREE Abaco software. Meters adapt to many applications with a simple plug-in adapter (sold separately). Made from anodized extruded aluminum for strength and durability.

Just put one on on my TTZ606. Huge improvement. My problem was that I had an off-idle bog as well as a bucking condition upon decel or cruising. Tried for a long time to compensate through tuning but could never get it right. STFT/LTFT were great but at certain RPM's my old MAF was not interpreting the way the air was presented across it. The ABACO MAF solved my problems by averaging the reading across the two sensors and smoothing the signal. The car now exhibits none of the prior characteristics. Well worth the investment!

 

Thanks for the input. I still have the stock maf and at WOT it is maxes out and then uses the PE table. When HPT 2.24 is released I am planing on converting to the custom OS with a bigger maf table and a real VE matrix. I think I would like to go with the Abaco in either 85mm or 97mm. I also want to relocate the IAT sensor to be after the meth injector. Does the Abaco have a built in sensor?

maybe its a type, but, our mafs read up to 12,200Hz (05-07) and 15,000Hz(08-up) not 300-1200 or 1500

mine idles at 3000 Hz

 

Yea, it's a typo. TTZ06 is using one on his Lingenfelter 1000HP Twin Turbo(856RWHP/842RWTQ). I also talked with a shop that just did an install on a '04 GTO and they installed the 300-12,000HZ table.

It does have the built in IAT sensor. You actually have to flash a base calibration into the memory of the MAF itself from a USB hookup. I wanted to relocate my IAT sensor but ran out of room between the Alky injector nozzle and throttle body due to the new MAF. My AFR's and timing are real conservative anyway so even if the meth failed I shouldn't have a problem. I still have my old Lingenfelter MAF 100mm if you are interested. It is viirtually new < 1500 miles. Significant improvement in tuning capability over stock...just didn't work out for my application.

 

I have gotten, but not installed, an IAT sensor relocation kit. I also don't want to mess with the meth injection setup. I am giving serious consideration to putting it in the intake manifold right after the throttle body. I have still not decided on the size of MAF to use or even if I need to replace the stock MAF. I do know that I need a bigger MAF table which I can get by converting to a custom OS from HPT. The technology used in the ABACO unit really appeals to me.

Where did you get your IAT relocation kit?

I have thought about putting it into the throttle body also but just can't bring myself to taking a chance in ruining it. There is not a lot of room between the throttle plate and where I would have to mount it past the meth nozzle. Afraid of interference... or worst binding at full throttle.

 

With 856rwhp, I'd be scared too if my throttle stuck.

 

Actually, I was thinking of the top of the intake manifold near the throttle body, not in the throttle body.
