Does anyone know who sell an intake system with an air mass sensor with it?

Do you mean mass air flow sensor ? If yes why would you want a new one ? I have a SRT hfi/ecu and you just use the same MAF sensor .

I am not really sure about your question though.

1NICERIDE,

I have a supra turbo and the air mass sensor is mounted on the airbox so I had to buy an external sensor to go with it. Is the ECU a piggy back? and where will it mounted?

Thanks.

I have not see the supra,but the sensor mount in the air box is the temperature sensor, not the MAF sensor
(my guess)

MAF is mounted on the throttle body close the place where the intake hose meet the throtle body
on the GS, it's is mount on the intake hose

"ecu piggy back" are you refering to Swift racing , currently develop Weapon R ECU or Apexi S-AFC?

they are all have a piggy back ECU to modify the signal for this sensor.

hope that help

Thanks Banana GS.

What kind do you recommend me to get? What is the price range? Is HKS any good? I have HKS for my Supra and it's great. Another question is should I replace the intake first or Exhaust first?

I would go with intake first. Contack y2kgs, I think he is doing some test on the new Weapon R intake w ECU, some said that their dyno result showed better gain then swift racing. Y2kgs, can you back me on this.

exhaust is just for the sound effect, does not do much, but it makes the V8 sound very mean
