Descreening the MAF

descreened mine no problems...gotta seal the air box up tighter to prevent debri from getting in...also you have to think why do the newer vets not have a screen in there maf...it is a restriction bottom line...and every little bit does help...look in sig for help...that is why i made my ram air...and have a 3.5inch cutout...

when i done my lid i removed the screen and some ******* on here said...."port the maf"well i did...car did seem to run a little better"better throttle response mainly"
I even started a thread about how much it helped...got as many flames as i did positive posts.....
after a trip to town the car went all to hell ...set 4 different o2 sensor codes and ran like ****...I could clear the codes and it would run fine afterwardss for a few miles.....
so in short i had to buy another maf....
that sob hasnt been touched and never will be.....
ive got a descreened ported and polished maf fore sale....
i wouldnt recomend it but,thats JMO.....

...if the DA was zero i am still trapping 114 mph at 3300+ pounds...i also did those times on stock manifolds and cats with a little 3600 stall, and stock gears...i mean half of the people when i posted it thought i was spraying...every little bit helps that is why i believe my car is running so strong...for ex. i believe to have one of the best ported throttle bodies i have ever seen...bo has even shon back to back dynos making 8rwhp improvements...i have a 3.5 inch cutout not the 3"(actually measured my dads 2 5/8" qtp), custom ram air and the whole air box is completely sealed up with weather stripping and some caulk...all of these singly might not be much but all together they add up...to each his own though i want the max out of my car for what i got...
