fujita intake wtf...
 
i have an 07 tc and i just put a fujita cai on my car well everything fits great and it worked no problem for about 400+ miles i even went down to have Randy put my springs on and i had no problems and now the engine light comes on and it because it the maf is "out of reach" i dont understand why it would do this and its ____ing me off any clue how to get rid of this crap

erric1234 11-05-2007 05:09 PM

wrong section, but try and reset the computer, unplug the battery for a few min

aen 11-05-2007 05:26 PM

is the maf sensor plugged in? maybe it fell out of the hole or something

:rofl: maybe the screws popped out cause of some gremlin and the whole sensor fell out ........Proly the EMS aint seeing the right voltage... larger intake piping....

aen 11-05-2007 05:34 PM

hhaa, you never know! i mean if it popped out then it would set his car into dummy mode and give him a cel right?

Bryan06tC 11-05-2007 05:35 PM

Im messing with you man... but it is unlikely...your right

aen 11-05-2007 05:36 PM

haha, it's probably not the situation but i fugured id slip that in here anwywasy

Midnight07TC 11-05-2007 05:40 PM

hey bud funny thing is im having the same problem on my 07 tc i just put in the same intake and i have tryed to reset the computer many times i don't know what it is yet!

Bryan06tC 11-05-2007 05:43 PM

Well I know that larger intake piping can trick the computer....ummm I don't know the exact mechanism by which it happens or how to calibrate for it... I just know it happens :P by the way this is in the wrong forum and we just keep bumping it :rofl:

tccurtis 11-05-2007 05:52 PM

sorry about the wrong place please move thanks.. and no the maf senor didnt fall out lol and i didnt think fujita tricked the computer so its ____ing me off now i dont like the scary orange check engine light on.....

Bryan06tC 11-05-2007 05:56 PM

well its not that they trick the computer its just that the sensor its outside of its normal operating voltage.... have the code read at autozone or something... its proly like a P0102 code

tccurtis 11-05-2007 09:04 PM

how do you get rid of it?

Darkfader 12-20-2007 01:43 AM

any updates I have a buddy with the same problem.

pioneer1976 12-20-2007 02:11 AM

for testing procedures what i would do is pull the fujita intake of and put the stock one back on, clear the code and drive for awhile and see if it comes back on. If it doesnt then its something with the intake. If it comes back on then its something to do with the MAF sensor. Being thats its an 07 i would try this first cheap and easy way to diagnos it. Plus also take the MAF sensor out and make sure you didnt damage the o-ring in any way.

I threw a fujita on a friends 07 and nothing was wrong with that..... Maybe you broke something

Does the fujita have a website with forums or anything or maybe a faqs because sounds like lots of people are having this error.

i dunno.. perhaps giving them a direct call might help depending on their customer service level?

Usually if you have some wierd MAF error it is usually a leak somewhere either in a vacuum line of somewhere on the intake. Also take out MAF and clean it just in case. YOU may have gotten it dirty when you transfered it over.
