[QUOTE="IUP99snake, post: 12128996, member: 7060"] With a lot of blow thru MAF setups, the MAF is located after a tight bend. This can distort the air readings, especially with a blow thru MAF under pressure. Is anyone using a screen or a "honeycomb" to straighten out the air flow before the MAF sensor? I found this: [url=http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=2096&prodname=HoneyComb+MAF+Mass+Air+Meter+Airflow+Stra]HoneyComb MAF Mass Air Meter Airflow Straightener- TREADSTONE PERFORMANCE[/url] It fits in the MAF housing before the sensor pickup to straighten out the air flow. I'm currently having lean codes (high long term fuel trims) most likely due to an inaccurate MAF reading and I'm looking for something to help without having to buy a new sensor. Anyone given something like this a thought? That honeycomb looks a little restrictive... But nicer than anything else I've seen. Plus it's pretty cheap. What do you think is the best device to use to straighten out the air flow? A screen? A honeycomb? Maybe a homemade grid made out of thin gauge sheet metal about 1/2" thick? Would this help get my long term fuel trims back under control? Ideas? Homer [/QUOTE]
