There's no difference between an 00 and 01-02 MAF. Dunno why they would label their product 01-02.

...im getting it for FREE im givin the guy an extera stock maf i have, and it will be worth the money to have it paired up with the 98 FTP lid when i go to get my car tuned...

no, it wont. save your money and hassle. the SLP 85mm MAF doesnt belong on any car, it belongs in the trash. get on ebay and find a truck Delphi MAF. same size, with much less problems.

johnrobbins

yes it will work. but as mentioned. It's not worth you time even to pick it up

when i say "save your money" i mean save your stock MAF, its worth more than the SLP MAF. ever stop and think why this guy is giving it to you in exchange for a stock MAF?

I havent had problems with the slp one, I dont yet know why everyone thinks their junk?

I still have my stock one and if it becomes a problem its not hard at all to change


I would get all of the other pre intake peices upgraded before using it though, wouldnt make sense to just have one intake peice that flows better when all of the others are still more restrictive.

I got the lid, bellow and ported throttle body, going to put the cold air on it soon.

yeah the funny thing about this is someone peeled off their slp sticker on their maf and it said delphi under it, its the same maf with a different brand name on it, and it is worth it to have for when i get my car tuned...

if you look at the GM MAF, it still has the screen. the SLP MAF does not. its a modified unit in more ways than that. thats what makes it a bitch to tune.

im sure the tuner can handle it, and acctually ur wrong the slp maf does have the screen but you can descreen it if you want it says not recomended....but im sure texas speed can tune the car without a problem because they tune 100mm mafs also with no screen

bww3588

they also designed their 100mm MAF. i stand corrected on the screen on the SLP unit, but i know for a fact that the SLP MAF is nothing but problems.

ive heard of a few instances where people have got their tune spot on with the SLP unit, only to have it go to **** a few weeks later.

dont beleive me, i dont care. but if your intrested, search and see. you will find about 1 person that has had good luck with it for every 100 people you find that have chucked it in the **** can.

well why did they say theres no difference between the slp 85 and the delphi 85 ? they said the slp was just a delphi with a sticker on it

I think you might be mistaken the slp comes with the screen its up to the buyer to remove if they wish to, it even says that in the description when buying. Thats why that statement is confusing to me?

Unless you were talking about a particular maf sensor that had been modified?

No one directly addressed this question, and now I'm in the same boat... I have an 01-02 SLP MAF available for a 2000 car. Clearly everyone thinks these are junk, and yes Delphi MAFs are consistent between years. But if I put the SLP 01-02 MAF on a 2000 car, will the MAF communicate correctly?

Sorry for bringing up this dead horse, but no one answered the initial question and I'm more curious than anything...

The two versions evidently use different "fudging"
resistors for slightly different freq-vs-mass-flow
curves. The early years being believed to be
"leaner" than the later.

If I were you I'd pull that resistor and use the
stock MAF curve from a truck or 'vette rather
than hoping SLP had any kind of concern for
accuracy.
