Plastic MAFs?

[Mike The Canadian]

What's the story on these?

When I look up replacements they're the new ones... why?

Are they good? Better? Worse? Durability wise?

I don't think it makes any difference. I have that newer design on my car.
It's probably cheaper to make.

I also suspect that it's cheaper and lighter. Having said that, I would probably not buy one unless it was my only choice.

Does it take up less room? Every little bit helps.

Not even Delco can get our MAF's right man, OE or nothing gets my vote. I'd take a used OE over that one myself
