Default Problem solved... I Hope.

While I was getting on the throttle today, my tube popped off for my MAF. So I decided to take my bumper off to get to the MAF tube so I could tighted everything up snug. Because I upgraded my stock MAF to a larger one, the rubber tube that procharger supplied didn't fit. I found a coupler at Lowes that worked as a temp. fix until I get the plumbing custom built. So I pulled the MAF off and noticed there was rusty water spots inside. I think that every time it rained really hard or when I washed my engine and my car ran like **** , it was because water was leaking down into the rubber coupler. I cleaned it off with some starting fluid and put it all back together. I hope that was the problem. So for anyone running a procharger with a stock MAF, be aware of the problem upgrading your MAF to a larger one. Here is the coupler I bought from Lowes.



I would love to custom route the plumbing and rid Prochargers stupid setup. I'd like to set it up so the MAF is in the factory location, not in the fender-well.
