I believe you can get tunercat for obd2 lt1s for approximatly $400. and I think it does everything that lt1 edit does.

Re: Maxing out Maf sensor

Sorry if I seem to be hijacking your post, but this thread has got me thinking. I was previously using the Maf Massager to stave off the dreaded high Maf fault. But after purchasing LT1 Edit I pulled it thinking by disabling the fault code I was ok. But can anyone with rock solid knowledge on the subject tell me if I've made a mistake here. Does the Maf still max out and cause the fuel to be cut in half on OBDII cars even with the fault code disabled?

I believe your question is directly related to this thread. I'm curious myself to the answer to that question, but I think we may be looking at an unmarked (unexplored) territory because I've seen this question asked before with no answer.

Re: Maxing out Maf sensor

I've read comments by people who claim the injector pulse width is cut by half on an OBD2 system when the MAF threshold is exceeded. I have no physical data to support this. Most of what I have learned on obd2 programming is from L J and Christian M. L J's document helped me. Possibly I can experiment since now I have a wideband o2 to test with.
