Default got my JLT intake..MAF question

So i got my JLT intake tonight. The plastic one. I put it together and it shows the MAF being on the rear side of the tube..Now doing it this way the sensor is actually upside down..This doesnt matter does it..I wouldnt think it does just asking to make sure. Sucks I cant do anything till i get my revised tune tomorrow from brenspeed

Doesnt matter. Just put it in the correct way; it should only fit one way, so air flows through it in the proper direction! It's marked on the MAF.

Your car will run backwards and the intake will blow instead of suck.

Makes no diff.

I never seen a MAF like that before..I am use to the small little ones with the resistor looking sensor in it..I never had a car that had a candy bar for a MAF..LOL

ok just took it for a spin..seems like it runs pretty good..it seems like its got quieter. Not as much exhaust note it seems like its more of a lower pitch roar coming from it now..sounds cool. Now I just gotta dyno the thing
