Those of you with expierences with aftermarket MAF's

[fly89gta]

how long did they last? does your car idle like ****? were u getting a lot of knock?

the first day i had my motor in it ran great, VERY little knock...now all of a sudden i'm getting 7.9 degrees at WOT and it stutters BAD at 2K....

the fuel pump is getting replace, but i don't see why one day it'll run good then the next day its ****, i really think its the MAF...so let me hear those aftermarket MAF woes..BTW a LT1 MAF and T+ is coming soon

had good luck with ones from NAPA. Advance, and the other local parts store you have to go through a couple before you get a good one.

well, my car sucked a screen out of Tomco mas sensor,and ruined my new @the time TA-49.

 

[faststkr]

yeah the tomoco sucked for me to car ran like crap. Thats why I only chance I think it echlin from NAPA!

I used the Echlin one from NAPA for over a year and then went to the translator.

Thing looked like crap but worked very well on the street.

DON'T USE THE HOUR GLASS SHAPED ONES!

The NAPA (echlin) one works good
the A1 Cardone (special order - advanced auto parts)works good


WE ALL KNOW THE TRANSLATOR IS BEST, BUT SOME HAVE TO USE A STOCK STYLE MAF FOR NOW (including me )

Last June my original equip. MAF went south. I bought an A1-Cardone reman. which I thought I would hate. Based on all of the negative postings on these remans I thought I would just run it until my Translator+ came in. Well, I never ordered the Translator. The very 1st maf I got idles great (6 on the meter) and snaps right up to 255 quicker than the stocker did when it was running right. So almost a year later I'm still running on the Cardone unit. My only complaint is that the connector comes straight out, instead of the correct orientation downward.
