    When I mounted my catch can I took the intake off for access and in the reinstall process found that the holes in the little EGR pipe were ever so slightly off from where it screws into the intake. I loosened the screws of the intake, attached it to the little pipe and promptly forgot to go back and tighten the intake mounting bolts. When I went to turn the car on I had P3190 and P3191, but fixing the problem fixed the codes. This setup was a little different then yours, but maybe you had MAF issues, fixed them, but then left the intake bolts loose?

    My money is on zero grams per second when the engine isn't running. What are you seeing?

    I have torque also but my TS maf is reading 0.18, very close. However my MAP is always reading 14 psi (1 atmosphere).
    Was your engine running?

    Cheapy version makes me wonder where all those 133 grams of air per second were going without the engine turning!

    100 kPa is also about one atmosphere (strictly, 1 atm is about 101.325 kPa or 14.696 psia).
