what will change on my mx-3 if i put a vane air flow from a probe and put it on my stock mx3 gs ? ill still be able to pass the e-test right ?

Dont use a PGT one, its not made for your ecu.

why would you go for the smaller Maf? man do some research and you would find out that the je50 is the larger...

its just for now untell i get the right one, or will it screw up my engine :S

depends on what motor your getting?

if your getting a klde then you want the one fromthe probe to go with the probes ecu. if your getting a klze then you want the one that comes with the mx3 the je50. if your replacing the stock one you want the je50 (stock one)

its temperarly on my stock 1.8L should i not drive it ? or its fine for a week or 2

srry for wasting your time, the guy that i boght it from said it was a probe vaf, but i looked at the vaf and it is the je50

probe/mx-6 v6 - klde air flow sensor and probe ecu.
klze - JE50 sensor (stock on mx-3 v6) and klze ecu kl31/kl36

If you are using a mass air sensor from a probe then use the ecu (computer) to go with it,

If you have a klze then use a your curent mass air sensor along with a ze ecu (kl36 or kl31)

Actually running a kl02 vaf on a k8 ecu isn't bad if you have a 2.5 swap either de or ze. As for running it on a stock k8 why even bother. its not made for that engine and will probobly make it run worse. Alot of people run kl02's on k8 ecu's with klze's because it leans out the mixture a bit. Especially for obd2 people. I actually ran this setup on mine and I think its nice. My friend has a klze with k8 ecu and kl02 vaf his has massive top end power with this setup. Its noticeable over the kl31 and a chipped ecu. lets not start a war over this. We have not dyno'd them to prove it but we will be soon, just at the moment we know the car is quicker right from swapping, and we have swapped back an forth dozens of times.
