Blitz Air Intake

[rocky v 300]

Hi all,

Ive just purchased a Blitz air intake with the stainless steel pipe.

just had a look at the standard setup and seen that there is a sensor connected to one of the hoses

Is there a way to get disconnect this sensor or incorperate it into the Blitz setup and will it have any adverse affect disconnecting it?/

Any advice will be much appreciated

Thanks

If its anything like the Blitz induction on the 3S-GTE the sensor should simply unplug and then relocates through the rubber grommet on the blitz pipe.

I can get a photo posted up if you need.

Hi

The pipe ive got doesnt have a rubber grommet, its off a toyota supra 2jz-gte so technically whoever had it on before would have taken off the section of the intake with the sensor and disconnected it (most probably)!!

Am I right in thinking that this sensor monitors the flow of air and keeps the idling balanced????

Yes - this is the MAF (mass air flow) sensor, you must install this sensor or your fuelling will be all screwed up. Here you can see the sensor installed on the pipe of my K&N on the 2JZ-GE:

Does the JZS161 have the VVTI engine??

As the VVTI had a MAF sensor (mass air flow) and not a MAP sensor (manifold absolute pressure) like the jap spec non-vvti 2jz-gte, which I presuming the previous owner had if there's no fitment for the MAF.
