Some days are just lucky

I bought my M491 cab several years ago. The original owner had removed the airbox and AFM at 6,600miles and replaced it with a Autothority MAF. He drove it a few thousand miles and parked the car for the next 15 plus years. I bought the car and sourced a new airbox and AFM to replace the Autothority system. It was working fine, but I just wanted the car stock. The original owner passed away last year. I got a text from his daughter asking if these went to the car. She was going to toss them if I didn't want them. Sure, I will be happy to stop by and save you the effort!

Nice! NOS parts are always great

When I bought my car it had the Autothority MAF on it and a garbage cone filter as well as the Autothority chip.

I did the same as you and sourced a stock AFM and airbox and haven't looked back. Tried selling the Autothority stuff on here years ago but no takers lol.

I didnt think many folks would be interested in the Autothority kit! Actually the car ran pretty good with it. Cold start wasnt the greatest and it surged at light throttle. I think the louder intake noise made it "feel" faster. I really like the stock setup with the Steve wong chip.
