I like it. Short, simple, and sweet. How did you get the MAF sensor in there? The big question----any T/C codes?????

That looks like a good spot for the filter. As far as possible from the engine. Should be good circulation there when moving, too.

the mass air flow center i used a piece of 2.5 exhaust tubbing and cut the slot with a drimel tool, used a spectra cupling the blue piece, and cant remember if the air filter is spectra or apc. $20 special from autozone. and it has worked really well and i love the sound! people swear up and down i have custom exhaust and mine is stock!:)

How did you screw in the MAF-with sheet metal screws? I see you have a piece that increases the size of the tubing. To what?

And what about the codes?

yea shet metal screws, Its just a 2.5 coupling to 2 3/4 coupling i believe any autozone should have it. as far as codes i get a check engine light once and a while, but no traction light.

Are you auto tranny? I wonder what the code is that is triggering the check engine light. I get the T/C code about 10 times, then I get the check engine light. The codes are for MAF sensor and something else which escapes me now (I must be tired).
