Picked up my IAT Sensor from NAPA today - I will be going into San Antonio this weekend so I will pick up a handful of differnet electrical connectors and supplies. The part number for this two-wire sensor is : TS4039
Hopefully I will get my MAF in the mail tomorrow or Monday.
EDIT - sorry about the dog hair, I am going to vacuum this weekend........

How much horse/torque is there to be gained? I know the flap is an older design, but is it really that bad? Good luck, I'm interested in the results. Sounds like it might be a competitor to the $1000+ kits.

Even hard conering or hitting a pothole hard could stop the doors smooth motion or even stutter it a little. Dirt and regular contamination can slow the swinging of the door (or slightly bind it) affecting throttle response.
I went into mine and put in the jumper wire across the pivot and used a very accurate HP meter and still see some slight jitter in the voltage.
I think the MAF is a nice way to smooth out and speed up the transitions between on and off throttle as well as perhaps giving a more accurate reading.
It is still an anolog device but it has no moving parts to give you grief...
But I am holding my breath and once I get caught up will do some testing...

Yeah, I'm not expecting any serious HP gains - but it will be nice to have a reasonably priced option to modernize the air metering method in my cars.

pulled my part number for you guys of the MAF -- 93bb-12b579ba
afa60-02a
"7f09"
all these were on there, i think the 7f09 will be the most relevant, good luck guys! i am driving about 100miles today on the new MAF setup, hopefully it goes well, and i will track my milage.

Think I am going to vent my nose panel and tig up a nice stainless airfilter box that ill fit under the nosepanel. Just need to find an off-the-shelf filter that will work under there - should look good and sound even better!

Sharky, I believe a number of 951 guys have found that the nose is an area of low pressure on our cars. Maybe the 944's exposed bumper would change that, but I believe inside the fender well is the preferred and tested optimum location.

Mine is routed thru the fender. A 91 Acura Intake (cheap on eBay) fits very well from the AFM (now MAF) to the fender wall. Looks like it was made for the 944. Then, put a mushroom filter on the end (HKS/HKS clone). If you like, I will take pics when I get my car back from the body shop this week.

you know that just is a temp measuring senser not a MAF (mass air senser) quanity senser right? as in
Intake
Air
Temp
senser
it is a thermister, only a resister that varies with temp....It has no way of varing signal voltage against a reference voltage...try a later model gm MAF...that would be a better choice

His MAF is in the mail.
