maf honeycomb
can you, or has anybody removed the honeycomb in the mass. i'm asking cause i bent some of the honeycombs. i drove the car around and it seems ok. no problems, so i was just thinking should i just pull the whole thing out???

Yup! Don't remove it, but in another thread someone fixed theirs with an allen wrench of the appropriate size pushing from the good side to the bent side since both are hexagonal.

your mass will be getting the wrong air flow readings.. i cant remember if you will run rich or lean.. but dont take them out.. its not like an old tpi setup on a trans am, you will have probs..

unless they're ripped, you could just fix the alignement for them.
I've actually did a similar but not as bad as you make it sound.
Just took some of my small pliers and fixed it right up.
You could also goto the junk yard and get talon, 2g eclipse maf sensor and swap out the honeycomb part of it.
yes, they create the vortex which in turn, karman vortex reader reads to evaluate the amount of air coming in, through the amount of the turbulance in the air passing through.

junk yard or the dealership.
i don't know if you could just get the maf honeycomb...
last i heard it was $600 for the maf sensor... dealer retail.
just have to find people with standalone system. try to get their maf sensor if you can't get the honeycomb seperately.

The 2g maf has a total of 4 honeycomb sections, I think. (been a long time since I ran mass air on my 96 GSX) So I do not think you can use them. I will try and look ity up on the CAPS ( EVO parts CD rom) tomorrow. If there is a part number for the honeycombs I will find it.
