5177 conversion to NX MAF ??
it can be done yes, but your better off, selling your old 5177 kit, and buying a maf kit.
It comes with better noids, and an electronic TPS switch for a super clean install.
you can probaly sell your 5177 for $400 or so, and pickup a maf kit for 800.
the maf ends alone, are $350 according to the other post around this forum, and that doesn't include the good nx noids, and the electronic tps switch.

Thanks Ryan,
That's what I thought.
I think I'm going to keep the 5177 and run a dual dry/wet systems.
Shoot 100 dry from start up and then a 100 shot wet as soon as I hit 2nd gear.
A little more expensive but I will benefit from a softer launch and go wicked after that.

Why not just convert your 5177 kit. I run 50 on the first stage and 125 on the second. I see more RWHP this way than others report using no jets 
I saw 124 rwhp with 125 shot using the jet charts in the colonels nitrous tips and 145 rwhp on a 150 shot. I saw little peak hp gain when i went to the 175 pills but the HP curve ran much flatter and higher at the high RPM. I beleive many see reduced HP with the 5177 kit because it runs through 2 solenoids insted of 1. If you want to convert your system just run the inlet hose into the blocked off port of the solenoid connector. Then wire the solenoids as 2 seperate systems. I have one on the WOT switch and one on the window switch. That allows you to match to traction. IMHO

I have a Walbro, and I tune with Predator. I ain't worried about gas, premium here is 98 octane
With no jets, I'm at 28* timing with TR6's and no KR.
I'll probably have to go with 26* for the dual stage.
