i found 1 post about that talking about bypass valves but nothing about the look of the two... when you buy one how can you tell if its 1st or 2nd gen?

GEN 2 is a bitch when you want to clean the MAF. You have to take the whole intake out.

Maf placement is facing the inside of the car on a gen 2. also the gen 2 has a carb sticker.

thats the easiest ways to tell.

I'd post a pic using mine but I choped off the end and re-welded the maf holder on so that it wasnt such a pita to clean the maf lol
