Default Mass Air flow Sensor Ends?

{ Mass Air Flow Sensor Ends(MAF Ends) - $50 to ? - Replaces stock MAF ends and Maf screen with a ported set of MAF Ends that still utilize the original MAF Sensor.}

What will this do for the car & were do I get one?
I keep getting a code for my mass air put a new one on same thing do you guys
Think the new mass air flow sensor end will fix this.
The car is a 94 Impalla SS Thanks

Doubt it will do anything positive for you....some folks have seen a decrease when going with a ported or Z06 MAF. What code are you throwing? May want to try cleaning you MAF first to see if that fix's it.

And no, I don't think it will fix whatever code he may be throwing.

Alot of times it is the wires breaking that will give you codes. I have had to replace a few of the ends on my harness including the MAF, IAT, MAP, and both O2s and well as a few others. The MAF was hardest to diagnos If I remember correctly. It helped that I have 4-5 MAFs laying around from testing years ago.

As GhostZ said putting new MAF ends on won't help with your problem. Performance gains ,if any ,would only be relized with tuning

The code says mass air malfunction. That was with the old mass air so I but in a new mass air & it's giving me the same code. I used a snap on code reader & that what it said.
I don't know what eles to do any help would be great. Thanks.....

Hmmm...

Not a clue....

Might want to check the wiring and conector ends. I would probe them between the PCM and the MAF. Moving the wires and connector around while doing this helps. In that scanner you are reading it is called a 'wiggle test'

Just a guess that might help
