Default what maf to get....Reman or New?
I'm in need of a new maf for my 2001 1.8t. I heard ecstuning.com had good prices so i checked there and found two that are designed for the AWM engine code. They have a brand new bosch sensor for $100 or a OEM remanufactered sensor for $125. Which one is the best choice?

Default Are you sure about that pricing?
Seems a little odd that the reman is cheaper.

At any rate; the reman MAF is a new element in a reused housing.

Default does any body here know that the...
MAF from a 2.0 jetta($50) is the same part as what is in our cars. The housing is the only thing thats different.
