Ohhh lordy, apparenly my mass air flow sensor is no good. So, either 597 for a brand new one from Mitsubishi or a used one. Any suggestions? Or anybody have one for sale?

How did they determine that you had a bad MAF sensor? Im just curious what the symptoms were for reference.

I got one but it's missing the Honey comb on the inside but you can take it apart and put your old one in there.

I had a check engine light on and when they plugged in they got 5 different codes. Apparenty it's not reading anything properly. I'm not very tech savvy, so I'm not that sure.

I know you're past this point already but I no way you'll break 300. My IX put down 290 on their dyno with catless turboback, boost controller, filter and their flash.

How much is the tune costing? Just want to know if its what their website says. I've had a tuner say one thing then when the cars on the rollers they try to push the price up.

Needless to say but that place is gonna be out of buisness soon.

Maybe they can swap one out from another car just to tune it, then put yours back on. That way you didn't waste the trip and you will be good to go when you get, just don't get on it before hand.

That's what I would do. I'm sure that AMS won't mind at all.

My IX with the exact same mods made 331WHP on their dyno.
