Can i Bring MAF closer to intake manifold?? - Toyota Yaris Forums

^ He's running a PRM Short Ram. Same one I have as can be seen in my garage.

I have seen someone with a setup that has the MAF sitting very, very close to the throttle body. I don't think you'll have an issue, but why do you want to do it? Also, with the vaccum nipple sitting right beside the TB coupler, there is no pipe really available to cut to make it shorter. Only thing you can do is cut a section out of the middle and splice it back together. And again, why? What is wrong with the existing PRM filter?

thinking of switching to a larger cone wont fit unless i cut on the throttle part of the intake which will make the maf closer to the manifold..but i read somewhere that this does slow you down..??
