Hah Go ahead and flame away, but I thought it was funny. I tackled my alternator replacement today and about halfway through I moved my car into the shade. Well needless to say, it sounded halarious. So I unplugged the maf, and drove it for a few mins. No turbo = slow as hell. The last pull without from outside the car was WOT. And the tip shifts like garbage @ 12v. at 1:58 you can see going to D theres no easing into it, it just slams into gear

Side note, will unplugging your maf throw a cel, or is it cause of the missing intake pipe?

Yes it will throw a CEL, as will missing intake piping.

 

i don't get the point of your video

 

+1

 

juse to see what a 1.8t is like without the T

 

its about a 1.8... more of a LS motor from a integra but slower

 

that was f-ing lame!

 

 

low compression NA FTMFL lol

Figure you were making a about 80hp at the wheels.


BTW the ECU on a tip car uses the maf to help figure out shift points, this is why you dont see any MAFless tip cars.

 

I have a MAFless tip car. But I lost tip. Right now I really don't care though.
