Reset the ecu a number of different ways and it still comes on, the car runs fine though so how could the MAF be bad, also the light doesn't stay on it just flashes like 6 or 7 times as I turn it on and then it doesnt turn on again, I have noticed a loss in gas mileage though last tank was ony 25 mpg which is extremely odd.

Headers and the Fly Wheel cant be down with regular tools right? I know for headers you have to pull the engine out, dunno about fly wheel, im looking for in the driveway of your moms house type upgrades I can do outside of CAI and Exhaust

Thanks!

Well crap this was supposed to be a reply to my E-manage/E-ram post, well for anyone that doesn't want to read it, basically looking for power options in the 400 dollar range that can be done at home, as a project of some sort, the only thing I can really find is the E-Ram, also I was having a problem with the CEL and my CAI.

you can install a header without taking the engine out

but with a fly wheel you have to move the tranny out of the way

and with flashing light just means you have to change your oil and rest the counter just search for it...

I'm moving this to the xA "drivetrain & power" forum, (formerly the "naturally aspired" forum) The Mass Airflow Sensor is pretty delicate on these cars and easily damaged.
BTW, based upon your engine removal question to install a header I'm assuming you are not turbo charged so I'm moving your thread to another forum for some more looks.
