My friend and I just finished installing the turbo. Now the most difficult part, tuning the car. I haven't found one thing about the MAF on a Scion Xa. If you guys know, please link me a site so i can take in some reference about the MAF i need to input to the system and the Map as well.

I wouldn't even drive your car with out the wideband hooked up, and if you don't understand what the numbers mean on the wideband.... again... i wouldn't drive your car. If your car is running lean and your out hot roding the ____ out of it, say bye-bye to your motor. Play it safe... either hook up the wideband and hawk eye it to make sure your tune is atleast good enough to drive to the dyno, or... trailor it like somone mentioned already.
