how to get the broken maf screw out?
#26
Im going to try to make a "new hole" using some special drill bits in the future.
I will do it later ... no time lately
I did drill the center out, but still wont come out. Im going to try to make a new hole later.
Its 90% out, but the rest just "stay" and wanna live there for life.
I will get a tiny bit bigger drill bit to make a new hole outa it.
couple problems with this kit, oh yeah,
- the MAF screw holes is NOT the right size, its a bit SMALLER than the stock screw. when you try to put it in, this is what happen. (I tried using a stock screw on the other hole and ... no good, didnt get stuck but, its just too small)
- Another problem with this hole is that .... its not deep enough, its "slightly" shorter than the MAF screw + MAF combine. So even the size is right, the depth is not.
- The MAF hole is too "big". so even if the size and depth are right. there is no way I can create a seal outa it. I need to find a bigger gasket.
- There is another "small" MAF tube with the correct size and everything ... but it serves no purpose at all, I dont even know why its in the box.
Mine could be just a bad kit, **** happens. Maybe I should email HKS and see what they say.
In the mean time (actually 2 days ago), I restored my car completely back to Stock intake with VFAD. took me about an hour something. Ahh, its so quiet ... my butt dyno is telling me I got another 20 hp outa the quietness ...
might sound kinda confusing. I will upload some pics later today and explain it clearly
