Berk Technology Intakes - Part IV

When I installed the BERK I had all the blown MAF symptoms.
So I put on the stock intake and drove to my local Nissan. I picked up a new MAF and put it in. Cold start and hesitation was gone. Than I put the BERK back on w/ the new MAF and my car feels new again. The performance isn't earth shattering but it is noticable and it sounds great.

Do you think I should replace the MAF when I install the Berk Intake? I ordered an extra MAF just in case something like this would happen. I still have the extended warranty, but the deductible is $100..not worth taking it in..just order a new MAF. Thanks for responding!

I wouldn't replace it till I had to. When you get the MAF it has a nice little note telling you to have your ECU software updated. It seems like most of the guys on here don't do it.
If you have an intake on I don't think you will get warranty coverage but if you have the stock on than you could get a MAF and reprogram done with the deductible .MAYBE.

I've been trying to decide on an intake for a while. I think this deal just made up my mind. I'll be taking one for an 04, paying most likely by credit card. If you don't mind, just pm me with all the information i'll need to pay for it and so on. Thanks.

To answer the question on this post, the promo will most likely last past Sept. There is definately a price increase coming in Jan 2005.

I am completely sold out of the 2004 Maxima intakes. I have another batch on order with the fabricators. Will not have them for another 2-3 weeks.

i will be picking it up on either friday or saturday. 2004 maxima mid-pipe with black couplers would do. thanx cobymoby
My car is otherwise stock.
Hey Coby, I am very interested, just have been a bit hesitant with modding my new Max after the bath I took on my Tahoe. I think I could swing the K&N full kit for my '01 considering I was going to spend 40 on the drop-in anyway. Please let me know if you have any other information that might be useful. Thanks!

Or, if you have paypal just send it over to "paypal@berktechnology.com" with a note and I'll process it.
The 00-01's are in stock and ready to go in every color. Just make sure to specify your silicone coupler choice, red, blue, or black.

Bryan,
When putting this together, from the throttle body..does it go like this?
I'm sorta confused on the couplers. The first one on the left is the one that is 3"x3" but skinnky to fat. Then the midpipe, 3"x3" coupler (fit on the MAF is tight as hell, any suggestions?), MAF, MAF adapter, 2"x2" coupler, adapter for filter, gasket, then filter.
Andy
p.s. sorry for the big pic
