If I can find the connectors, I can build it.
I spent a lot of time trying to get this for us [many lost posts]. I talked to three or four of the auto electronics guys that I know [mostly from working with my turbo Buick] and no one could get a "female" plug [the maf side] for this over a period of about three months. The only thing I could find was the maf.ia wire extension for supercharged /turbo applications, but the price to run it "set to zero" of $180 was a little too much for me. If you look that up you will see that the end is molded right into the plastic meter, and no one seems to be able to get just a "plug" for this thing.

I finally gave up and bought the pigtail from Ford for $24 and did the cut and solder route. The WMS kit comes with a new larger plastic wire loom /tubing that will let you tuck the splices and heat shrink inside. After you wrap it with electrical tape it is nearly impossible to tell it's any different.

Good luck though..

I am having trouble finding the end that plugs into the harness. Maybe I'll just epoxy six posts togther.
Would these work? http://www.ledfoote.com/osc/product_...roducts_id=189

We beat this horse to death for months when these first came out!

See . . . http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showth...ighlight=mafia for details.

Like "Mikeelia" said . . . there is no female (MAF) end available even through the folks that made the original factory piece.

Like Mike, my suggestion would be to pickup the factory MAF harness repair/replacement piece, use it as an extension and be done with it.

I agree with the lyin'king.No Big deal to cut and splice the the six wires.I did mine last September and and had none, zero problems with the wiring or the CAI In fact I ran a stock tune until about a month ago I finally bought a SCT-2 from Brenspeed and put the 93 tune on.What a difference more low end torque pulls much stronger and NO 2000 RPM lag when stepping on the peddle and actually getting around 2 mpg better fuel economy.Here is the finished product.
