RK Sport Urethane Ground Effects, Body Kits, Spoilers & Flares, and Carbon Fiber & Fiberglass Hoods

 

RK Sport was born and bred on the race track. It is the offspring of racer and race car builder RK Smith. His talent on the track combined with his skill as a designer/ builder produced a decade of awards, championships, and accolades. It also forged the philosophy and principles on which RK Sport was built. You win in racing and in business by ‘taking the right line’. Making the right choices, doing the right thing every time, all the time; that is what makes champions, both on the track and in business. For RKSport, taking the right lines means building a top quality product; building a team of talented, loyal, long-term employees; making it the best value in the marketplace; and offering your customers legendary service.

Teams make it happen. Standing on the podium only happens when a team gets it right in the trenches. It is about having a common goal, taking pride in the role you play and having the discipline to execute with excellence. Those qualities in a team come from sound leadership. At RK Sport, teams make it happen by taking pride in bringing an exceptional quality product to the market; being treated with fairness and respect; being included in the celebrations when the team wins; and being rewarded for their contribution. 

Constant Improvement keeps you in the front of the pack. If you are not improving you are getting passed up. In racing, it’s measured in lap times. In business it is measured by product quality, customer service and value. In racing, the checkered flag identifies the champion. In business, the customer waves that flag every time he or she chooses you over your competition. When it is all said and done, the customer decides the winner and RK Sport takes that seriously. The RK Sport commitment to constant improvement includes All products made in the USA by skilled craftsmen; All materials used to represent the highest quality available for the job; and Developing manufacturing processes that ensure exceptional fitment, style, and appearance.

A good name is more valuable than silver or gold. RK Sport proudly bears the name of its owner, RK Smith. The RK Sport reputation is something that has been building one customer at a time for over 30 years. Accesspeed is proud to offer RK Sport products to our customers.

Air Intake and Induction » Mass Air Flow Sensors

What is a Mass Air Flow Sensor or MAF?

The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is part of your vehicle's electronic fuel injection system. The MAF sensor calculates the total amount of air entering the engine through the intake tract, and tells the computer how much fuel to inject for air coming through the intake. 

 

 

How does a mass air flow sensor work?

The mass air flow (MAF) sensor has two sensing wires in the housing that protrudes into the intake tube prior to the throttle body.  One wire is heated by electrical current, the other is not heated at all.  As air flows across the heated wire, it cools the wire down. When the temperature difference between the two sensing wires changes, the MAF sensor automatically increases or decreases the current to the heated wire to compensate, telling the computer how much fuel to send through the fuel injectors.

 

How much horsepower and mpg increase can I expect from an aftermarket mass air flow sensor?

Aftermarket performance mass air flow (MAF) sensors replace your OEM sensor and improve on mileage and can increase horsepower by up to 20-HP, depending on the vehicle and engine. Performance MAF sensors increase airflow and low-end torque, without robbing top-end power, and works with factory electronics.

 

What are the symptoms of a bad mass air flow (MAF) sensor?

  • The engine hesitates or drags while under load or idling.
  • During acceleration, you experience hesitation and jerking.
  • The engine coughs, sputters, or hiccups.
  • Excessively rich idling or lean idling.
  • The engine is difficult to start or crank over.
  • The engine stalls or dies shortly after starting.

 

Can you drive with a bad mass air flow sensor?

Yes and no. Yes, you can drive your vehicle with a bad mass air flow (MAF) sensor, but only to get it home or to a repair shop to fix or replace it. Ignoring this problem can lead to far more severe engine problems and damage.

 

Why would a car run better with the mass air flow sensor unplugged?

If your vehicle runs better with your MAF sensor unplugged, you likely have a shorted-out sensor. When the computer does not read a signal from your mass air flow sensor, it provides the computer with a stock signal that will allow you to drive your vehicle for a short period of time to get it fixed or replaced.
