Just bought a vr6 and it feels ok but i think its underperforming, any idea what might cause this, so far ive searched and found possible things to be: Split vacuum hose or a dodgey MAF . If it is the MAF how do i know ? and how much to repair/replace??
Thanks

Unplug the MAF and if it funs better then thats ur problem?
Due a service?
-
will it be ok to run it with it unplugged? just to check it is the plug thts on the left hand side of the bay on the piping in between the airbox and the thottle body?

Thats the one

feels better, but i replaced a vacum hose at the same time, its back in now and runs ok , not sure how fast the car is supposed to pull away ??
0-60 in 7.4 i read??
-
Yep thats whats it ment to do. Go try it, wouldn't mind knowing myself/

i had a 200sx 1.8 turbo, and its o-60 is 7.9, now this one should be faster but it feels so flat and slow :sad:
any toher ideas why it might not be running right?

Over due a service, a good service can do wonders.
