In the Kit for the MAC Cold air fenderwell intake it included a bracket to mount the MAF Sensor.

But in the instructions it stated this bracket was used for the short ram. Not the Fenderwell intake.

My Question is: Is it still nesessary to instal this Bracket?

No you do not need the bracket. The new intake tubing is sturdy enough to hold the MAF up on its own. Don't even worry about using the bracket.

I agree the hoses are sturdy enough to hold the Maf into place without the bracket. That's how mine has been for over 3 years and I've never had a problem.

Cool Thanks for the reassurance. Thats the way I installed it. Just like the instructions said. But I have seen others use the bracket so I just wanted to check.

Thanks.
