MAF within procharger path?

Will the MAF hold up in the path of the forced air from the blower? Has anyone had any MAF problems with this set up.

The MAF is placed on the inlet side of the SC, not the compressed side.

I have the 12psi kit and have the screens removed and had it ported. No problems so far. BTW, the MAF goes right above the battery in the intake tubing.

If i'm not mistaken....from what i've seen and read on the ATI systems the MAF is in the pressure side.....after the aftercooler and before the TB....
I'll let you know as soon as they ship me my D1sc....it's was supposed to be here on friday!!!

later maniac,

Mass air meter on the ATI system goes between the last 2 tubes before the manifold,The rubber fitting is extra long here,split it down the middle,put one on each end with a little gasketch and hose clamps and you are golden. Remove the screens if you havent done so yet.
