dude you dont have to watch it, I posted it mainly updating that it still works great and wasn't just a temporary fix. I also posted it to help someone out who is thinking about buying the Celica MAF, and wanted visual proof it fixes the issues of jumpy idle, cel, and crap acceleration.
New discovery for the 1.6l guys

LOL wait. Im confused. I dont know why i said "ok..." at post 77. I was just being sarcastic about watching the idle. Its all cool though. You have the injen intake right?
i just got a new job, so im gonna be looking into some things.
I have a SRI that stops like right behind the headlight. Keeping the 2.25" SRI on, Ive tried a 2.25" u pipe to relocate the filter where the coolant tank goes for cooler air. It pulled weaker. I then got a hold to a 3" u pipe that i used. It pulled harder donw low like it shud, but then up top, it was poo. Im wondering if the MAF is the cause. Any help on this?

yes, I have the Injen cold air intake. It is 2.5" all the way through. As for your experiment I think it could be partially the maf, and with 2.25" piping all the way you shouldn't see much up high gains, but down low and mid range, the 3" pipe should gain up high not down low, but that's the opposite of what you are experiencing, so I have no idea.

What about the rx8, MAzda3/6 MAF sensors? r they all the same as the celica?

But they dont have problems liek we do.
I dont know what to tell you, if you have access to one of those mafs, see if the owner will lt you test it out on your car. If it cures problems then maybe there is a difference. just going by part no. i dont see how it would be different. Then again the rx-8, m3, and m6 ecus might utilize the information coming from the maf differently.
Also, are the aftermarket intakes for those cars different size the stock?? or the same? if they are the same then we all know there will not be issues, and thats why it appears they do not have these problems

yeah, ill get the part number a bit later, i'm in a class right now, and i can post a picture as soon as i make it back to my dorm, The only corolla I know for sure that uses it is the corolla xrs with the 1.8l VVTL-i motor.

Try to pull that off whit one of ours. It must be a good swap.
yeah, i dont know, the toyota one has a nice fat o-ring to seal it, so i just pushed it down pretty firm, and then screwed it in being sure not to cross thread it again, but i live in New Hampshire and the roads are absolutely crap, frost heaves, pot holes, cracks, you name it, so my car gets bumped around a lot and it hasnt made the maf come loose, i might look into a screw/bolt extractor this spring and then retap the hole or something to be safe.
