As for boost control i got a blitz solenoid controller installed already

Is there any specific features you would get with the maft pro speed/density setup compared to just using my blitz to controll the boost?

As for other mods,heres a list so you know what i got:

-Reworked botton end w/ Wiseco std size pistons,Eagle rods(not here until august so will use std rods for now),Arp and clevite33 all around,Toga oil pump
-Ported and polished head (being done as we speak) w/ std cams
-Cometic 2.0mm steel head gasket
-A1000 fuel pres regulator
-Walbro 255
-680cc low imp injectors from fiveomotorsport..not sure what make these are as i havent recieved em yet.Anyway quality was garanteed
-AEM Wideband controller w/ 02 sensor
-Other gauges like fuel pressure,boost etc
-RPS stage 3 clutch - 6 puck w/ new bearing kit
-Greddy timing belt
-3" Custom stainless steel exhaust
-Blitz solenoid dual stage boost controller

And lots of other bits and pieces that dont really apply to the engine build

and probably a few that i forgot to mention

A couple basics here. MAF is a term specific to certain types of air flow meters. The generic term used by Toyota and a few other companies is AFM. The MKIII does not have a MAF. The turbo model has a KV AFM and the non-turbo has a VAF.

Thanks to the MAFT Pro, I do have a MAF in my N/A.

Stan, given everything you've got in your build already I would personally probably choose to go with a speed density setup. Either will work fine though. Yes, those are the type of MAF I'm referring to, although removing the screen isn't recommended. The screen serves one more function than that seller mentions, it makes sure that the air flowing through the sensor is evenly distributed. If the MAF were placed right after a bend in the pipe a lot of air would slip by that the hot wires don't see.... then you run lean, possibly VERY lean.

I just got back from test driving the turbo MKIII I've been setting up for speed/density... WOW. I love that car, too bad I won't have for more than another week.

It's not a horrible system to setup, but it's easy to get intimidated by it.
