Air Flow Meter upgrade Thu, 15 August 2002 12:45 Go to next message
I want to upgrade the Air flow meter on my 18R-GEU to a larger size. has anyone done this before and what gains were had?
at the moment i think it has a 3T AFM on it and it looks very small.

what late model toyta motrs used a flap type airflow meter that would requre no wiring cahnges or very little wiring changes.

Would a AFM off a 22R-e be any benifit? i havent seen one of these but i guess it would be fairly easy to obtain and reasonably cheap too.

i known the supra with 5me has a flap type one. i have one off my 5me but not sure if it's compatible or not.
It has a fairly large inlet from memory.

Anyone else know if its comp?

5me and 22re are the same sizes and you might need to change a few wires, maybe you might get lucky but i doubt it

just get a wiring diagram dude

hey dude you should only upgrade the AFM if you are doing something else to your motor that requires the change i.e. cam and bigger injectors

just changing the AFM will cause uneven fuel ratios at different revs, it may run lean at idle then way too rich up top and this is with tuning the AFM meter cog inside the black box, your better off with bigger cams and injectors then to change it

i have had the head ported and as it is i think im running a 3t air flow meter and computer so it isnt right anyway. i can always change the overlap and stuff if i need to.

you wouldnt have a second AFM off a 22R-E would you celica mad? tha ti could maybe purchase or try out for a little while?
