Does anybody have any pictures of their MAF relocated. I've read on the forum that relocating can stop the car from stalling. the rpms drop now ever since i installed my CAI. thanks

You're welcome. Where abouts in MI are you? I haven't seen any other Speeds around since the Fun Drive we had over the summer.

It will stop stalling if you have blow off valve installed.
If you just installed a CAI, and its dropping its cause you have a leak somewhere. Relocating will fix it but thats a bandaid to the problem.
Make sure all the pipes post MAF are not leaking. This includes the couplers from the maf outlet to the turbo, and most likely the bypass valve from the intake to the hot side pipe. If you dont have the bypass valve attached at both ends it will drop the rpms.

to terbow--i did install a blow off valve after the cold air intake, its the forge blow off valve not the replacement forge bpv, i don't know if changing from the bpv to the blow off valve since it was the bolt on one

I had mine venting to atmosphere and I used the HKS EIDS (Idle stabilizer) to cure the stalling before I went to the Haltech. You can find them on Ebay pretty cheap, and then you don't have to cut pipes, etc.

you can weld a single nipple on the intercooler piping and run both the bov and the bpv.

The fun drive was a gathering we had with alot of the local Mazdas around this area. There was a good turnout. They usually post something about it in the Michigan section so keep an eye out for it. Great times ang great cars. This was my first year doiong it but I will be at the future ones. I don't think I've seen your car around. How long have you had it?
