Default No MAF

I was reading about another non-Honda engine and it mentioned there was no MAF. It was a Chrysler 5.7L Hemi (or was it the 3.5L V6). Anyhow, could that be. If's it's not called the MAF, the it's still another type of sensor, right.

Dare I be as bold and say - I also recall reading that not all Honda engines have MAF. Got something to do with manual trans or AT.

Educate me.

most older honda engines do not have maf. they are speed density a.k.a map. air pressure vs air flow.

Correct. And now days most Hondas DO have a MAF as it has proven to be more accurate that a MAP sytem. They also still use the MAP for redundancy. And still some cars (not Hondas) use a VAF

I think the MAP sensor is better suited to turbocharged engines.
