i was just wondering how everyone install their intakes?? do you guys keep the sensor thingy(im sorry i dunno what it is) or just take it off altogether?? what i did was i screwed it on my filter and pluged it in. but when i plugged it in it chokes or something. then it dies. i try letting it idle so the computer can get use to it but it keeps dying. so i just unplugged it altogether. i dunno what's better. can someone help. also it's an auto and and es if that helps. thanks

 

never take off the MAS..that reads how much air is coming in and adjusted the fuel accordingly

 

here's a pic of my intake. it is the stock rubber elbow, then the MAS, then the intake filter.

 

i mean i still have the mas on it's attach to the filter but when i plug it in it chokes then the engine dies.

 

disconnect your battery for a minute do reset the ecu. btw, where you from?

 

did u put it on backwords (sp)

 

sounds like its backwards to me....

 

my connector on the MAS is on the right side for me, and yours is on the left, so like everyone else has said..maybe u have it backwards?

 

yeah mine is on the right...does it also matter if its upside down??
so it's on the left now cuz i have it upside down...and also the check engine light shows...how can i get rid of that?? i mean i disconnected the negative and let it idle for 5 mins then it goes away...and comes back when i start the car again.

 

this is for sickdimension.............im from los angeles

 

sounds like everyone else said. your mas is on backwards. The plug should be on the left and the top. like the picture above.

 

how long can i drive without the mas plugged in......and also how did u guys connect the mas to the filter??? i drill a hole on the filter then screwed it. and show pics i see likes alot better then what i did

 

you need a mas adapter plate. if you want i can take a pic of it for you.

 

yeah can u??? and where can i get that??

 

here is a pic of what you need. this one is metal, but you can also get plastic. i highly recommend you get the metal one cause the plastic could melt and get in your engine.

billy (Link286XT) installed mine, so you could pm him on where to get it, unless anyone else reading this knows where?
