Default IS200t MAF Sensor Location

I was just curious if anyone knew the actual location of the MAF sensor on the IS200t. Is it attached to the cold side of the turbocharger? I know some people have thrown a BOV but if it's after the MAF you will get a false air reading causing a rich condition.

MAF sensor is on the intake box.

This is the MAP sensor which is located on the intake manifold.

Thanks Sheddy,

I guess the IS200t has a drawn through style MAF which is right at the intake. Basically making it impossible to put a BOV on without messing up the A/F ratio. Might be able to relocate it but I'm not sure if you can make a drawn through MAF a blown through MAF.

From what I’ve seen in the forums, people who have installed the TTI BOV haven’t had any issues, but I could be wrong or they may have been tuned for it, but I don’t recall that being the case.
