Default Anyone in Denver with a 2.8 30V M/T want to test Stage 3 MAF kit on your car for a week?

I've got a Stage 3 MAF kit (velocity stack, MAF/sensor and 3" silicone hose) made-up and ready to go. Takes about 10 minutes to install at my place. But need a tester with manual transmission. I keep your MAF as deposit and you report your findings here. If you like it after the test period you can buy it. If not I'll swap your parts back on. Much more interested in objective/unbiased reporting on it than selling it. Even if someone said right up front; "I'm not going to buy it at the end of the test" is perfectly fine by me, in fact preferrable as your reporting would be even more unbiased. I have buyers lined up... it's a local tester I'm short on.

But it's GOT to be a local/manual transmission car, and available to do this weekend. And your stock MAF MUST be an 078 133 471C Audi part number.

Any takers?

Default I would do it in a heartbeat... too bad I am in Maine :-p

i still can't find how to search for a MAF on car-parts.com.. it only gives me a drop down list that doesn't include anything about MAF's. I am probably just ignorant.., but who knows

Default Here's how to find them at car-parts.com

1. Select year of car: (96/97)
2. Model: A4
3: Air Flow Meter (from drop down menu)

Then search for 078 133 471A MAF's, or MAF's from a 2.8 12V of that same year. If part number isn't listed be SURE to ask if it's the 471"A" maf as the earlier MAFs were same part number excluding the "A." And the "A" designation is THE most important aspect as it's entirely different than the 078 133 471 (non-A) MAF.

Hope this helps.
