Now if we could locate the owner and get some positive answers.
With the help of all you members ive gained a lot of knowledge which is great !
Theory and practice to back it up but the oem ecu , fuel etc might be able to keep up with that boost........... ??
I guess the deal with keeping the OEM MAF on OEM ECU is that the MAF does not stop reading the air density/temp/volume as opposed to a OEM MAP sensor from a NA engine. The 5S-FE MAP sensor would freak out at or above anything close to 1.0 psi....so my guess would be that with an FPR installed it would then "read" that there is boost and put the spurs on the fuel pressure and make the injectors spray a bit more.

From what I am reading about MAF & Turbo from other sites/boards is that the MAF needs to be at least 10 times the distance from the turbo inlet as the turbo is wide, so 3" inlet on turbo = place MAF 30" distance from turbo inlet......

edit: BTW MANDALAY, you *might* want to look into that as well with your Rotrex setup, that is *if* you will still use the OEM MAF
