[Shotimes] Jumpy ebay seller

[Al Fitz]

OK, this is his reaponse to my question:

it's a stock MAF I have no clue what the previous owner did.


Now I'll keep him going with a follow-up question:

If this is a stock MAF, then how did it get to be 65 mm? The stock MAF is 55
mm so this one must have been machined out. Also, you say it is calibrated for
the 65mm, how did you do that? I'm very interested in purchasing this item so
please help me understand it's characteristics.

  I just had to mess with this guy so I sent him this question:

  Did you modify this MAF or did someone else. It looks like a very
professional job. Now that it is enlarged, will my stock computer work with
it?


  I'll let you know his response.

    This is amusing. Against better judgment, I emailed an
    ebay seller last night after I found his auction
    stated that his stock SHO MAF that he was selling was
    65mm. This is what I said:

    > Dear mpguy7804,

    > Hi I thought that I'd drop a line- these MAF's are
    > actually 55mm, not 65mm. good luck with the sale.

    This was his response today:

    > your thinking of the throttle bodies, mass airflow
    > sensors are 65 stock. But this is not a question so
    > you will be reported to ebay for abuse of their
    > system. Myself or any other seller don't want these
    > kinds of emails so keep your missinformation to
    > yourself.

    I'm so terribly scared. If anyone wants to check out
    the auction, it's 7952083891- Buyer beware that this
    is nothing more than a 55mm MAF. I'd hate to see
    someone buy it thinking it was special and have his
    amazing level of customer service.

    Oh, and aren't the throttle bodies 63mm? I emailed him
    a link to a shotimes article and apologized for his
    confusion of abuse and help. If he gets more emails I
    wonder if he'll report everyone..incredible.
