Thread: Need OBD2 MAF hz formula

i searched and searched but couldnt find the formula for the PID for the mass air flow frequency to input into my torque app in my droid. i saw dark horizon posted a formula in the threads a while back but the way he written it out didnt make sense especially the "<<" symbol and whats with the extra paranthesis? see below:

((N1 << 8) + N2) / 2.048

*bump
i put this in the custom PID entry in the app and still nothing works to display the MAF:
(N1< 8) + N2)) / 2.048

Bump

and whats the point of this?

I want to scan the maf hz pid when I'm scanning and tuning. Don't want to carry around my laptop when logging data as i can use the app

if you have a tuner use the damn laptop, why the fvck would you want your live data scan from the t app? thats just not safe in my book. or logical either.

Using the app because it's portable and can be used easier and more convenient

makes no sense to me at all. so your gonna trust some mathematical equation you cant even trust? theres a reason no one knows this answer.

the mathetical equation would be equivalent to calculating gear ratio, tire diameter, injector flow rate, MAF by g/s etc. its been figured out and floating around. i just cant seem to find the formula posted for that particular PID. honestly im here looking for the formula, not whether if its a good idea to use it or not use it. this isnt a thread on debating and arguing whether its useful to use on anything other than a laptop. i appreciate the info and suggestion but im still going forward.

i was merely pointing out no one does this. so the answer is not gonna happen anytime fast. because its not practical in the end.


and DH and his 1/2 a answers are not not gonna help either. hes been banned.......

Thx notdarkhorizon. Ill try it out!
