OK. when you put on an anderson powerpipe, where does the MAF sensor go?
If im using front eibach sport coil overs...what is the recommended rear springs abd do they need to be coilover?
This is for an 87 Fox Hatch and it will be used for street 90 % of the time. Thanks Guys.

If it's for the 87, there is no MAF unless you have done a conversion...as far as rear springs, suspension is just a matter of personal taste and driving style

If it is for a supercharged application it goes on the end of the pipe and sits in the fenderwell. The filter then attaches to the MAF.

It still goes on the end of the pipe, there is no difference in placement.

Stiff ride? Intraxx springs.
