Mind as well buy a reman one from AutoZone or some store and have the warranty on it. That's what I would do anyway..

Wait that exists? I've researched ca18det Maf of a total of like 12 hrs. I've never cam across a usdm cross over. I have a stock ecu so I don't know if it'll even run right on my ca18det.

I'm pretty sure the FWD ones are the same. I think the single cam KA MAFs are the same as well, but I'm less certain of that. I might have a FWD one laying around, but I may need it if I rebuild my Pulsar. Then again, if I do I should just suck it up and go big on the next rebuild, lol. Can anyone confirm the FWD CA16 and CA18DE MAFs are the same as the DET's?

The SOHC KA MAFS is SIMILAR, but not the same. IIRC, it will make the car run rich at idle, and lean in the top end. But since the ECU is in closed loop at idle and the stock tune is super-rich in the top end anyway, nobody ever see's any issues running them.
