Default Re: Since the MAF is so restrictive taking out the screen makes it slightly more responsive but...

Thanjs
Any idea what his MAF may cost, I live in South Africa, and by the looks of it a machined MAF is a good option!

Default Re: MAF screen purpose

I took off my Air box got a piece of rubber left from the last air filter, removed it I also removed the screen and I feel a little better performance on low end torque that's all. Maby I should have my MAF machined, the only prob is i am in South Africa

He charges $255 + $200 core charge which is refunded when you send him yours.

Different than the U.S. versions. We have a 471A version that Mance modifies.

Default We have that MAF in the US too.

It only came on 92's. 93-94's have a different one too

Nice signature by the way!

Default Will I get better performance with a stock 471A MAF

Ha Ha we are always behind when it came to cars, so even if I just get a 471A here, will the performance get better. I say this because by the looks of it the diameter of my MAF differs greatly from yours. So am I right in saying I will get better performance just with a 471A MAF

Default Your MAF sensor has a 4 pin connector, the 471A is a three pin.

That means they are not swappable without some modification.
