I wish I had known this a couple weeks ago before I ordered one from Vertex Auto for 2.5 X the price... I may consider sending it back and ordering this one... Will have to call and check their return policy. Thanks for the post Danger

Thanks for the link!

FYI: This is the same MAF sensor used in the Bosch engined Land Rover Discovery II and in many other vehicles I suspect.

Thanks for the tip and sweet ride..not usually a fan of radical body kits, but that looks great. Also wish I knew of this MAF option when I replaced mine 1.5 yrs ago..

Well, as they say, "your car is only as fast as your MAF is clean"

They don't really say that, but for you, it certainly seems to have been the case!

Im glad you figured it out! I had a 1500 mi trip to get under way while i was still sorting mine out, so I just did o2 and Maf sensor replacement, either way like you I feel it runs better and no dash lights after 1500 miles... (besides low washer fluid but i feel that might add some HP) anyway congrats on the find!

Have you thought of dyno-ing your boxster with and without washer fluid ?
