Problem after Turbolife install.

There has to be another way though...Mazda didn't put anything on it to know which way is the correct way? Can any damage be done by switching it sides and then going out for a drive to test it out?

just don't drive too long and don't slam the pedal. really just flip it and take it for a quick test drive.

Gas it slowly to where the problem exists and see if it's still there or has ceased.

Don't slam the pedal.

there is a screen in front of the sensor to block any debris from hitting it. the screen should be toward the front and the sensor in the back.

the little triangle looking emblem thing on the flat part looks upside down when its correct.. lol

 

[harrisonchang]

well that depends on how you pipe it. i set mine for upside down too, but realized later that was the wrong way.

 

[dstmsp03]

the point of the triangle points at where the air comes in...

Thanks guys, I'll check mine tonight.

Alright, MAF is on the right way. I'm thinking it's one of the couplers of my intake that's leaking a tiny bit. How do I check my couplers for leaks? My idle vac is good but I heard that you can still have a leak.

There is also an arrow on the side of it which indicates direction of airflow.

yep yep,

also if you look inside of it you can judge which way it goes easly. well for me that was easy haha.
