i'm on the same boat as you, i've just ordered a ko3 tip. should fit over the turbo! but it's not made for a 3" maf, however i've read it can be stretched over? we'll soon find out when it arrives, and i'll let you know :afro:

not sure if you're still looking for an answer, but i've managed to fit my vr6 maf onto a ko3 tip. just had to shave the outside of the maf to reduce the diamater.

apologies on the quality of the photos.

Cheers man, I bought a forge one and I fitted to the turbo fine but I have tried fitting the maf yet.
At least I know it will fit now

iphone pic as always!

the thickness is very similar to a standard maf housing, only slightly thinner.

it's not the neatest, as i grinded it down. but no one will see :grin:

was a bit of a struggle to get it on the tip the first time, but now i've left it in for over a day, i assume it's stretched and goes on no problem!
