ClutchBurndout-:( Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 hey guys, im read up a bit on people removing the mesh on their afm, to make it less restrictive, what dangeres are there from doing this? i cant seem to find any apart from when handling it outside of the car, as you might drop something in it etc has anyone done this? should i rip out the mesh? ta Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/330942-taking-out-afm-mesh/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodles2 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 In short, "The mesh on the MAF is used to smooth out airflow to ensure the sensors have the best chance of a steady reading." Leave it on, Nissan put it there for a reason. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/330942-taking-out-afm-mesh/#findComment-5374775 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SECURITY Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 leave it on. you will have more restriction from your rubber intake pipe closing in on itself before you get a restriction from the AFM mesh. and when you start getting an airflow problem with the higher power you will most likely be upgrading to a z32/map-sensor and some aftermarket engine management. its pointless.
