We have finished installing SR20DE in a project car. When we start the engine after 5 sec the engine stall. Also I notice that the engine have a delay reponse when steping on the pedal. What might cause this problem?

Did you check all the vacume lines? Just a thought.

sr20de problem

Yes! I check it. I'm not sure of the MAF that I installed is correct. Does it effect the engine idling if I install the wrong MAF.

thanks

Have you tried to isolate the MAF???

My daughter had a boyfriend whose 91 Mitsu Eclipse did the same thing...he disconnected(unplugged for testing purposes) the wiring for his MAF and the car ran like a raped ape....his was part of the air cleaner box he also replaced with Cold Air Induction ....

Maybe this helps....???

Their are kits available to bypass the MAF or by a K/N with it already installed...

It affects EVERYTHING.
The MAF is necessary for SR20DEs to figure out how much fuel they should supply at any condition.

If he does this on a SR20 the ECU will go in SAFE MODE and it will not rev above 2400rpm.

sr20de MAF

I think i have used the wrong MAF for this engine. Can I use the MAF for SR20DET (Turbo) even thou my engine was naturally aspirated?

Also what sensor should I consider to check if the car produces was smoke when at Idling?

thanks,
