    my friend had a problem with his MAP/MAF sensor when he replaced the stock intake with an aftermarket one.

    problem was the CEL turned on suddenly. wala naman immediate symptoms.
    but he had it checked sa casa. i think they kept the car for about a week before they diagnosed and fixed it.

    fix was to remove the aftermarket intake and return it to stock.

    Your can also head on over to www.clubmazda3.com.ph/www.teamrage.ph or www.protegetech.org, hellrider... every thing you are looking for can be answered more swiftly by the owners of 2.0R's in the clubs mentioned.

    *about that Simota 2.0R intake... known problem...quick fix, you have to get the size of the tube around the MAF back to stock size of 2.0 inches... to avoid turbulence...everything else in the tube can be 2.5 inches (like AEM or Injen, or even the Mazdaspeed intake, but only the Simota is available locally) or 3" like the F2/F5 CAI. (also not available). IF you look for Primo1 sa clubmazda3 you can see exactly how it was fixed/prevented using a CAI manufactured locally...

    Probably there's little difference in drive handling between the two...except the power and the rush of the air coming through the open moonroof. he he he...
