airflow

I have the mass air 89 camry and 89 gts celica cars and was reading a while back on getting the BIG mass airflow for better airflow, it was years back, but I cant remember what cars came with the big ones but I can remember from the pics is that there is a fairly big difference in the flapper door size and the openings. Has anybody heard of this?

well this is kinda like this, i was running a turbo 3sfe @ 5 psi of boost (so sweet) and i hade 163 on the g tech for hp, so i put a bigger 3sge mass airflow sen. and a ge TB on it and ran 1 psi more of boost and i went up to 189 hp, so bigger is better!

You put a 3sge throttle-body and air-flow meter on a 3sfe? Did it work properly?

I never thought to compare the gts mass air to the camrys, they look pretty much the same from the outside

Is the TB larger? More power?

Tempting...

Do you have any pictures of when you did this?

yea the tb is bigger, im not sure how much bigger (i did this like a yr ago) i want to say 10mm bigger, but im not sure as for the pics, i dont have any but im still running the ge mass air and tb on my car now, even thought its all stock but that and the car has a auto trans and 178,000 on the clock and it still puts down 105 at the wheels, i think its worth the time but hey userlain if you find a celica 3sge would you pull the head and intake man and injectors and ecu for me, when you go after the tb and mass air sen.?
