Where does the MAF go on a custom intake?
Ok ok ok...I know...I know. I shoudl do a search and all that jazz. Well, I'm impatient! My question, since it's looking like I will be using a Acura integra intake system (2-piece) I've been wondering where the MAF will go? I mean, I know this is probably a silly question...but I just don't see how it will fit in between the two sections of pipe.
And when I did search it in the FAQs' there was no reference as to where this little sensor goes.
Anyone wanna answer this without flaming???
Thanks in advance,
Tyson

if you're talking about the big blue rubber line, it's for the pcv system so leave it there. the other little nipple is for egr so leave it there also..
The VAF goes right in the middle like shown
