Also, do you know if there are any guides/instructions on making your own short ram intake? I can't find any stores that locally carry any kits for the 1.6L(autozone, advance, oreillys, napa, pepboys etc), and I can't order anything online. :[
Thanks for the heads up. but i got this celica gt-s maf sensor on my protege with a 2.5 inch intake like the injen and i am still experiencing some hesitation and rough idle. not nearly as bad as with the stock maf sensor but its really annoying. any other suggestions?
toss the stock intake back on, and see if it still does it. your issues might not even be intake related. could be an ignition issue. and the only way to know, is by tossing the stock intake back on, and see if the problem still persist.
I have been having some similar problems recently but with a 2.0.. I put on a short ram about a year ago, and for the past 3 months I have had some pretty bad hesitation during acceleration. Once in a while it will also kick a little while sitting at a light. I ran a diagnostic and no codes came up either.
the GT-S came only with the 2ZZ-GE motor the GT came with the 1ZZ-FE the gts came in two trims the regular GT-S and the TRD "sport" package which featured a lip kit and wing. The Car's engine and power output was the same as the regular GT-S. Just have them cross check to confirm that MAF for their R 1.8l mfi and their Y 1.8l mfi are the same part. If they are then it doesnt matter. But, there were two actual different motors with these cars. Autozone is full of morons anyways. You could just go onto their website, look up the part number and go to the store and order it that way dont even tell them the make or model just say i have a part number for the MAF i need.
Well,i got the Totota celica gt-s mAF today,replaced for the old one and my car was running really rough,stalled 3 times on my way home and sitting on neutral runs at 400 RPM until finally stalled.
So i swap again for the old one and run smooth and normal now.
So if anyone wants it let me know,i bought it brand new on ebay and i have proof of purchase.
i doubt they will receive this item back.
so anyone interested pM me and i will post the proper pic and discuss price.
Tomorrow i'll go to the autopart and get the mazda MAF.
