    bosch. But to be honest the other doesn't look any different. And if they are offering it then more than likely it's also a great product.

      *Update*
      So every so often my maf will cut out (throw 1215 code). It's been doing it after a start up at idle. If I blip the throttle it will start working properly. It doesn't do this all the time. And it never does it while I'm actively Driving (knock on wood). It never loses power while it's cutting out. Or at least the led light on the conversion box stays on. To power the maf I'm using a fuse tap on Fuse # 10.
      Is anyone else having this issue? Also I'm aware this is still a work in progress. I've tried emailing SSSquid but I haven't received an answer. Not sure if anyone is at their shop. The website still says that they will be closed through Jan 24th..........but it's Feb 10th. Either way I still believe it's a great product or at least it will be when all the bugs are worked out.

          So I believe my issue wasn't with the MAF itself. I believe my issue stemmed from another issue. I believe that my ignition doesn't always start my car correctly causing a hiccup in the power delivery at very beginning of the starting process. Short answer yes.

            Still going strong a couple years later? Worth the ~$300 to you?

              So the first version I had worked great. Then the revised version (I'm not sure which version he is on now) gave me problems. The car would buck underload sometimes and I would have to give it a lot of throttle to get it to start from a stand still. Getting the car to start in the morning was a bitch as well. Now I tried replacing everything but the maf conversion when all this was happening. I tried contacting SSSquid about the issues I was having. But I really didn't get anywhere with him. He more or less blamed me for the issues. So out of desperation I just swapped back to my AFM. My car immediately started working fine. So in my opinion yes it does work and it's a nice option to have, but be wary if you have problems. I'm not out here bad mouthing them I think they make great products and prior to this incident I had nothing but a great experience.
              I've gone standalone now. Which is so much better than the old motronic stuff(IMO). But it's not cheap.
