how would one go from a maf to a map so that a na car could be turboed?
i found this but it dosen't make much sense

also would in a honda the map is in the throttle body right?
because if so would it be possible to just swap throttle bodies (because the stocker is tiny as ----)
to gain airflow and be able to use a map so i can boost?
also for 8-12psi would a 2 bar map be adequit? (i belive i read that a 1 bar reds up to like 10.5 and 2 bar is like 22psi or somthing?)
anyway i found 2 bar map's for like $30-50 on ebay brand new

thanks for the help

Yes you can go from maf to map. What motor set up is this?

e-tec 2
1.6L dohc 103hp 107ft-lbs
6500rpm redline 6750 fuel cutoff
2005 aveo 5 speed

I dont know what kind of ems systems they have for aveo's. but my brother went from a maf to a map on his eclipse. But he is running a aem ems standalone. Totally got rid of his stock computer.

I think if you were to just put the maf in the charge pipe it would see boost, and you would be good to go!!!

so your saying relocate the maf to the intake pipes instead of the intake manny so it reads the boost as a ---- tonne of vac?

that makes sence and the conputer already knows how to compensate for vacc as it is na but would i have to run larger injectors i am only looking for about 8-10psi maby 12 tops but as it's a stock engine with 105k i was just going to replace the stock hg with 2 mls hg's (stock comp is 9.5:1 so 2 stacked mls should bring it arround 8.6-8.8:1 and will be stronger than the stock, and while im at i i would want to go with arp studs, or would i just be better to go with arp studs and change them out one at a time so i don't have to pull the head?)

thanks for the help i have been getting flamed so much for wanting to turbo an aveo (i even got threatening pm's from some guy on here)

one last thing, dose the maf read vac or air density?
if it measures vac then how do i know what it's reading limits are?
if it measures density then won't i need to have some way of "fattening up the mixture" as the revs build to compensate for boost?

i am sorry to sound like such a newb but i nave never worked with a turbo on a car that was not turbo stock

also i am looking for like 300-350cc injectors but i know they don't make them aveo specific (no aftermarket) but is there any out there that are similar enough to work?

lock-pop!

megasquirt FTW. I know youre not boosting that Aveo.. Or are you?

cornfuzed

no i really am boosting an aveo. or more like trying to, but i feel pretty confident i will get this figured out and running
but i admit i couldn't do it without hmt's help

no, I would put the maf in the charge pipes, not the intake. charge pipes go in between your turbo and your throtle body.
