Hey guys,

Looking to purchase a Takeda CAI from a guy, however there are some things I'm wary about.

The previous guy bored out the hole for the MAF sensor as he had an SI (bigger sensor). It's originally supposed to be for a hatch, however he MacGyver'd it. Will this be an issue for me since my MAF sensor is smaller?

Is this going to throw any codes/cause any issues in the long run? How's everyone's experience with the Takeda CAI?

Edit: My other option is to buy an Injen short ram, but don't hear many great things about Injen.

Not worth the trouble. There is certainly nothing wrong with purchasing a used intake but the MAF housing is the most critical part of the intake and any modifications could cause major issues down the road.
