Moving an AFM and putting it in the IC piping?

**PeterT** · 18-05-10, 10:55

Has anyone ever done/seen this?

Reading on an r31 skyline forum, they are saying that because the afm is after the turbo and before the inlet, it makes for a much more acurate reading and have made there cars more responsive? Is there logic in this or are they saying this just to back up the confidence that the huge flutter now off the turbo isnt killing it?

Any ideas folks?!

its a blow through set up of a afm , its used to trick the ecu and get more from it

yes i seen this before ! better readings no hunting etctec was the reason for doing it ......could be wrong tho !

I wouldnt imagine sitting it right over the turbo is good for its lifespan though, it would be getting alot more heat!!
