Message	MAF sensor. It will disrupt the readings and cause a rough running condition. The MAF on our cars work by heating up and measuring the "cooling" that takes place as air flow increases w/ rpm. If you have a ram air setup, It cannot accurately measure the air that comes across because it is rammed through, instead of being pulled/vacuumed through. Now, if we had a Pressure or flap type MAF sensor, Ram air could be benificial NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin.
