I don't mean to alarm anyone.. I was only pointing out that more work needs to be done with the MAFTPro so the output more closely matches the stock MAF curve for the Evo..
Wow, this thread is growing quickly.

The software that Joey has will very closely replicate the stock EVO MAF. Joey is having difficulty with his USB converter and has a fudged calibration in there at the moment. As soon as he gets his computer straightened out, his tune should straighten right out. The software is going to be 'released' next week, but updating the software in the Pro is a 5 minute deal in case any of you guys want to get a head start.

I kinda figured he was using the DSM calibration and not an Evo one..

Orlando Speed World, however the World Street Nationals are in town now so it is not likely there will be a test n tune.

Joey, I am trying to contact you. Your mustang dyno appointment to reflash has been moved forward to 4:00pm and slot reserved. Miami is a far drive so I am trying to get you notice at the earliest possible time. CFT just started answering the phones.

**Anyone with joey's # please PM me. His other # is out of service.

You can use the Pro to eliminate the MAF, and still use the UTEC for your tuning.

This was mentioned earlier in the thread, so are you guys going to offer a cheaper unit that will create speed density or at least a larger MAS without all the other features we would be using with the UTEC? Meaning just the software, and sensors, and/or larger MAS.

The Translator Pro will replace the MAF with Speed Density.

You need the Translator Pro
Plug-and-play Speed Density harness
MAP sensor
IAT sensor

It has been done with the UTEC.
