Im still pretty much in the guess work stages as yourself mate. Ive been speaking to a few other guys who have been trying to get a homemade kit working well. We have tried using a MAF sensor housing from a 1.4t corsa D as its ment to be the same diameter but when we fitted it it was slightly smaller.
The cars would start and run, my car would run but as soon as I put the car in gear it would cut out. My mates car ran and you could drive but the engine was really lumpy until you got up to speed so we are getting somewhere with it. I have ordered a custom MAF housing with an air straightner made as part of the housing. It is frustrating, but were gonna have to take readings from both the MAF and MAP sensors while the standard airbox is fitted and then somehow replicate the same readings with an induction kit.
feel free to message me if you have any questions and please get stuck in and see if you can sort something yourself and we can pass information back and forward. As the guys have said there are a lot of people wanting to know if it can be done.
