How did stereos get into this? Quote:
(noticeable)--You very well could be correct, this may on some level have an adverse affect on the MAF. I however (in my so called incompetence) have not noticed anything. Quote:

Yes, perhaps my post was a bit harsh...bad advice from someone who can't even call the part he's "modifying" by the correct name does tend to get my ire up. Did ya stop to consider that maybe you got lucky? Or that maybe someone else might not be so mechanically inclined as yourself and destroy an expensive part that works as designed based on your advice? And I don't care if you are 22 or 72 years old...bad advice is bad advice.

I'd like to clear things up here....
I have modified my intake system.
I do not in any way expect people to do what I did. ALL of my stock components are undamaged, just removed. I did not modify the MAF in any way, nor did I remove any parts related to the MAF. What I did was: 1. Remove the stock air box, filter, and what is being referred to as the intake resonator. 2. Create an adaptor that bolts up to the MAF portion of the intake, add tubing to the adaptor to route it into the fender well, and then installed an aftermarket cone style filter. I believe all I did was enable the cool air to more efficiently reach the intake. This information is for that reason only. INFORMATION. Do not try this on your own car. |

FWIW, I put an Amsoil air filter in my '97... works great, little bit extra get-up-and-go, plus increased gas mileage... the mileage increase was probably helped by Amsoil engine oil and tranny fluid, but I went from ~20.5 mpg to to 23.8 mpg Yesterday I passed 346 miles since my last fill-up and the light still didn't come on. When I filled it, it only took 14.5 gallons, so there was plenty of gas left in there

i met two amsoil guys at a tradeshow and got their catalog. i think i will go with their 0w raceoil and pick up their tranny fluid too. nice to hear some real results. good work.
