Well if you have seen any of my past threads, you know Ive been goin through tunning problems with my sr this year.

Ive decided to pull the wiring harness and have a professional, who does sr harness servicing, look at my harness and check all wiring.

I will then be able to eliminate wiring being a cause of my headaches. Ive never been confident in the harness since Project D Autoimaging installed it.

The only problem is Im taking it out MON, and I will be unable to go to the Indy meet. But I couldnt go anyways due to the poor running of the car.

Wish me luck...:)

Were you the only coming from your area? If not, why not ride with a buddy? And if I had the spare cash myself, I would! :D

naw man.. don't do that.... just keep working at it.. it will be taken care of... don't just dump it like that.. I know it gets frustrating.. but hey.. look at it this way.. at least you enjoyed the SR for a little while and you already have a SR dropped into your engine bay... just try to work the problem out!

What do you clean the maf with, without damaging it?

The intake is brand new Greddy and on tight, so I dont think thats a prob.

take the black box off the MAF housing doing that you will reveal the two filaments . take some brake cleaner and spray it down good ! youll be suprised how dirty the back of the filament will get and simply just spraying it into the housing wont get it clean back there it needs spray spressure directly onto the filaments
