  1. Hankook V12, I get 5-6K miles on a set of rear and 14K on the front so far. I am not super aggressive but my driving style likes to have the rear end let loose at least once or twice every time I drive her. When I had stock vehicle, my Mich PS lasted me 15K miles. Last set with mods lasted 5K. It is all relative on how you drive.
  2. My tune is a pretty aggressive file from GIAC. Mind you I am running K24/20, 4.5" IC, 60lbs siemens injector, 5 bar FPR so air flow from the big lazy turbos spool at very high volume through the stock MAF. I've blown several Bosch MAF before changing over to the Hitachi MAF and have not had a problem since. Just my personal experience. Sounds like your MAF has been very fortunate. I think all stock MAF will eventually go just when is the question.
  3. Hitting redline and have the tach needle bounce of the top, usually because I could not shift fast enough
  4. So why not another new MAF ? Bad circuitry in the MAF maybe the culprit. Try unplugging the MAF connector, note PSM/ABS light will come on and drive the car. You are effectively bypassing the MAF, but if the problem does not persist, you have a MAF either bad or going bad.
  5. hmmmm. Hitting the rev limiter should have very little causation with the blown MAF (it may correlate). Since the airflow over the hot film may be unusual, it may cause spikes in the voltage and blow the MAF... Hitting rev limiter on my GIAC K24/20 tune does affect the stock MAF since they cannot resolve the flow of air at that volume hence going with the Hitachi MAF or as you stated voltage spikes and blowing the MAF
  6. Received them and they work fine . The magnetic points takes a a tiny bit of rotation to find the metallic points to attach but otherwise they "stick" fine. Not sure how aeroskirts or side skirts would get affected by these since it is about a 3x3" block that would actually relieve the distance between floor jack angle of contact an jack point .
  7. I've used that MAF and did not have any issues. Unfortunately I've gone to hitachi MAF just for the reasons I was blowing my MAF from hitting rev limiter on my tune.
