so i was looking thru audi world tech and found this article where a guy wrapped this maf with a towel because when the engine/exhaust manifold (same side as intake box) got hot, it started to get hot giving wrong temprature readings.

so i took aluminim foil and i wrapped the intake pipe and maf and drove all day today.

noticed alot more throttle response and the power dip at like 3500 was pretty much gone. car feels like it revs up soo much easier than before.

i'm selling my car so i'm not gonna leave on teh alien like mod, but worth a try

 

WOW. no offense but i seriously think you're feeling PHP









































placebo horse power

 

HAHAHAHHAHASHASDHFPASDUFHADS;KJFH;SAKDJB

Thanks for the idea... When i get home im going to wrap everything under the hood with tin foil... That should get me an extra 20hp.

 

cool! if it works than it works! you fools ever try it...thats what I thought NO...so dont dis before you try it.

P.S. I never have tried or heard about this "mod" before today.

 

hahaha i think its all in your head

 

try duck tape it gains 10hp just by useing it on your car and it looks oh so sweet

 

DAMN!! I'm sooo stupid why haven't I done this already?!!!![:@]

 

actually "fool", this mod does not work. i know this because i understand elementary physics. foil doesn't stop ambient heat (the kind of heat coming off your engine)...it only reflects radiant heat from things like the sun...and on top of that, the MAF doesn't have any overheating problems, in any car. thirdly, the maf is so small and so close to your intake and so thick that NO amount of insulation (foam, foil, or otherwise) is going to do any good. the reason you have never heard of this "mod" before today is because it doesn't work. i'm sorry, but it just doesn't.

 

Its all good Bentframe, I just wanted to start some trouble...

 

Aw man Bentframe just
you.
"elementry physics"-I LOVE IT!
