quoted from another thread:

"No. The VAFC only works with MAP sensor-based engine management systems.

The SAFC has a user-definable sensor type (eg: Karman Vortex, Hot-wire, or MAP) so that you can use it on any sensor type. You have to know what type of sensor the system uses to determine engine load before you can select. The SAFC manual has charts to help you with that, but the general rule of thumb is that DSM's always use Karman Vortex, Nissan's use Hot-wire MAF, and Honda's use MAP. I'm not sure what kind of MAF Toyota uses, but their turbo cars utilize both MAP and a MAF. "
