MAF Cleaner....new product!!!
Posted this in the Fluids/lubricants forum, but nobody goes there, so thought I'd let you guys know about it.....seems to be something we've been waiting for a while.....

listed as a "new product" - saw an ad for it in grassroots mortorsports mag this month.

little red circle says "PROVEN to Gain 4-10 horsepower to the wheels!"

....with our dirty MAFs, could actually be true.

wow, I could have used this when I went through three MAF in a year and a half...

But thanks for the heads up, I *might* try this on my current MAF because I think it is on its way out.

The places I have found it online sell it by the case (6 cans). Anyone know if its available at a local auto parts store? Looks like our new $6 can of heaven!

Now this product is going to replace all 400billion Seafoam threads...

BTW, if you use this WITH seafoam, you will get like 50whp and any SES light will turn off.

no that only makes 35whp. for 50 you have to combine those two with BG44K

No it's not, spray it on your instrument cluster when you get a CEL for your MAF.

So is this stuff for real, or what? If someone buys a box I will pay unit cost or more plus shipping if it is. I would also like it gift wrapped with red ... no ... yes a red bow.

Hooper told me that if you use that with a test pipe you will shave 8sec off your 1/4 mile and that is 400whp.

What you think my av is for fun? I got a twin-Tornado set-up ready to go in this weekend.... the dual leaf blower kit just wasn't putting out as much low end as I was hoping for.

It might work, but until someone tries it, I will consider it just another magic solvent that someone created to make some easy money.

BTW: how much is it?

Are you saying that you dress like a woman? Is that you in your AV?






























PS: if it is you, do you want to come over this weekend?

I use plenty of this company's products, and they are all quality. CRC is a big-time industrial support company....not some ricer fly-by-night setup...the money they make off MAF cleaner is really a very tiny drop in the bucket for them.... I'd trust anything with their name on it, and will be getting some of this MAF cleaner if they have it at the local auto parts store..

um...no. Men wear rings...and tie clips, and cufflinks, and other jewelery. Besides, the rings are handy at keeping my fingers from getting smashed when I drop an engine or differential on them

besides....when hanging out with the DC crew, I still look alot less gay than the rest of them:

I have about 4 or 5 cans of varioius solvents made by them....not as many people buy it because it looks "generic" since the labeling isn't fancy...but it's better and cheaper than the "known" brands.

Take her easy... It was a joke, I wear three to four rings also and cufflinks uhhh and tie clips and a million different watches (and yes I will sport a pocket watch from time to time), hell I even have gold collar stays.
