BIGD502 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 there are aftermarket filters you can find specifically for that truck that already have one or you can buy a kit with a new one and its just drill a hole and put it in and hook it up Quote
enemyofsilence Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) new pixors... here is my intake as it stands. can i put the sensor somewhere here? thanks for all your help guys Edited August 19, 2009 by enemyofsilence Quote Team Bass-Hz
1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) You have to modify the new airbox to accept the MAF. I'm surprised your engine still runs without it. You can keep the aftermarket intake and should. It will be hard, but you will free up some horsepower. An upgrade like that is well worth the time. EDIT: you have to put it after the filter and you cannot zip tie it in. That's an accident waiting to happen. You have to properly secure it.

LoudBimmer Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 just a simple sensor, but your filter looks nice Quote

Is it? That's what I meant by "airbox". You shouldn't be able to run the engine without it. You may have gotten lucky and got one that's designed to run with and without them. You definitely will not get as much performance or mileage without it.

enemyofsilence Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 intake is stock, just cleaned up a bit. filter is brand new (well 2 blocks old) as for that sensor, i need to put it near my new filter? i dont want to leave the connection unplugged cause i dont want to mess up my car and/or engine. i will see if i can pull out the sensor from the stock filter and find a place for it. thanks!

enemyofsilence Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 can anyone tell me where to put the sensor at? like after the filter or in the tube before the filter? i need to drive tomorow and dont want to drive w this thing disconnected. my last option would be to put the stock back on if i cant figure this out. thanks!

WickeD Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I would put the stock one back on... Or you could possibly find an adapter for the MAF that would be a plate that goes behind the cone filter but I didn't see any when I looked. Edited August 19, 2009 by WickeD Quote
