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 by the way this is in the wrong forum and we just keep bumping it

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

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.

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.
