Urgent Hitachi MAF help please!

What voltage should I get from Hitachi MAF both engine not running and at idle?

...new ( 2nd Hitachi ) MAF, stoplight switch working, WSM fault finding procedure done & everything OK, Motronic programmed for Hitachi and still getting P0102/115...

I highly appreciate a fast answer!

What a floodlike flow of answers...

But, after checking boost leaks again & cleaning the TB I started to be slightly p*****d about continuous MAF fault. So I changed back to OEM Bosch MAF.
No fault codes.
Of course lambda values were off for a while ( I had been driving it and Hitachi MAF's output voltage is significantly lower ), but based on a short test drive it works and now lambdas are getting OK too. The disturbing issue here is that the Motronic should have been programmed for Hitachi MAF and now I do not know what it really contains...hardware is built for upgraded program and if there's a std program for std injectors etc I'm way off. I bought it second hand for my build and confirmed it's program from the tuner, but...
One strange behaviour though, with Hitachi it starts OK hot & cold, but with Bosch hot starts are slightly difficult.

Is your car tuned for the Hitachi? Have you ask the tuner? You can pull those codes from a boost leak as well, have you boost tested the car?
