I might be able to come up with a MAF extension harness, as I recall it was a Delphi plug. I would certainly charge more than $50 for it, or offer it as an incentive to buy the kit from me haha.

How can I buy one from you?! I'll rather keep my cables intact

Agree completely.

If I ever buy this kit, I'd definitely want one and would be willing to pay for it.

I just think for the premium price of this kit, it should already be included. There are kits out there (even if they are turbos) that include headers, pump and injectors for the same price.

CARB approval is worth it's weight in gold to the substantial portion of the buyers that live in CA, and that's where a bolt-on supercharger kit is kind of the only game in town.

Aside from that, I know that I'm comfortable selling kits to people for 'driveway installs', and if the fact that you've got to rewire something is a challenge, I'm more than happy to look into getting those connectors and making pre-made extensions. I've already got the measurements, and plenty of Mil-spec wire...

Hi guys, I totally hear what you are saying about the harness. I'll talk to the guys and see what we can do. Maybe we can work it into the kit.

I also have a question... I ordered my kit through Perrin along with their tune its on its way here now and scheduled to be at my door Friday. A map sensor is included with my kit... Everywhere I've looked it doesn't give any info on the map sensor. Does it replace the maf with the map, or does it run both sensors? I've searched the vortech and Perrin site and they both don't have any info on the map sensors that I can find. Instructions may be in the kit when it gets here but I'm just trying to be prepared before hand

No. Those are to different sensors you need to replace you map sensor with the one they send you. You still you the factory maf sensor. It just moves. If you have any questions about the install feel free to pm me. It's really simple and I am sure you have better instructions then I did.
