        I wish there was a way to make just this this post a sticky but the VAF adapter for the BP is off a 90-93 mazda miata. Here is the PN#81413 and you should be able to get it at any part store. Its made by spectre. Rocketman also makes them for the festy B3.

        ROCKET I have some measurements but they might be off especially on the studs because mine are bent.

        From the top left stud to the top right stud on the MAF is about 3 1/4". From the top left stud to the bottom left stud on the MAF is about 1 1/2" From the top left stud across to the bottom right stud is 3 1/2". These are ruff measurements give or take a 1/16" of a inch. Sorry I couldn't do better.

        Here is some pictures of the adapter itself and the back plate seal.




        The plastic seal (dumb)



        The adapter plate itself needs modification to fit. This is just standard as the instructions say to do this because of diffrent model vehicals. I kinda muffed up the drilling of holes. If you look you can see how close the holes are to the round opening. I hope I can still get the nuts to tighten down.

        Id rather of bought one from rocket but I already had this ordered.

          It has been covered before many times. Glad you found the part you needed though.

            Thanks for the measurements - The pics above are for the B6T VAF, it looks like the BP is totally different. I have a WTB thread on clubprotege, if I can get my hands on a VAF i will be able to develop an adapter for it.

            I'm also working on an adapter for the N/A B6 VAF i should have that done in a week or two. That should be close/same as the B3

              Got ahold of a BP VAF - turns out its the same flange & inlet as a n/a Capri B6. I tapered the inside for a seamless transition into the VAF body.

              Whatcha think?

                    Very nice work man. Wish I wouldnt have spent the cash I did on the junk autozone adapter.
