Need an aftermarket MAF quickly - anyone, private or vendors?

Hey guys, John @ Speedtech is where I would get one but he is out of stock temporarily til at least next week and I am taking a long road trip next Friday.

Anyone (private seller or dealer) have an aftermarket MAF for 996TT? I am not too keen on paying $400-500+ for a new Bosch unit....

thanks!

Do a search here...there was a thread a little while ago that someone found them for $150 or so...wasn't too long ago, month or two...I am not having trouble, but was gonna buy a couple just because...never did though...

Dave - I have a spare Bosch unit if you want to borrow it until you get another one.

I did a search, but a search for "MAF" and related words brings up one zillion results. I will keep trying to find it. Thanks.

Thanks for the offer, Rich. I will keep that as a plan B option. I would hate to blow up your new unit though.... although that is unlikely as I am going back to the stock airbox and filter I think for now to see if that solves it. Will be selling my V-flow I think.

Is your MAF stock? Is MAF the metal tube thing? When SharkWerks switched mine to Hitachi, Alex gave me that piece. It is stock and you're welcome to borrow it.

Yep, stock MAF. I know.. it's a bad formula.... 500+hp, stock MAF and the V-flow!
I do have that aluminum insert thing that was updated from EVOMS that a fellow member was kind enough to send me, but I am not convinced that will do that trick after several other accts of it not solving the issues. It seems the most obvious fix is be done with the V-flow.

Thank you for the offer.

I thought this was a boost or vacuum leak so I took it to my indy yesterday and he checked out the whole system and cleaned the MAF, but he recommends getting a new MAF after ruling out a leak somewhere.... and going back to stock airbox. It is running okay but still has idle surge like just this morning again and runny choppier than normal. It must be a bad MAF... or at least the next logical thing to replace.
