Did you take pics???
I messed around with my spare 22RE AFM that the PO pulled the plug-in out of and i couldn't get the circuit board out of it- the board was stuck between the housing and the armature (the bit connected to the flapper that moves).

I didn't take many pics 'cause there wasn't really anything to take pics of. I didn't swap any boards around and I'm not done with the intake any ways. I just put it together to see if it would work. The intake still runs the way it did before(OEM). I still need to pull the intake apart and rtv the connections.

Questions for Big Blue Pile:
What's the power like?
I saw those filters on Ebay I think, are they re-useable (can you clean them)?
Here's how I am planning on setting my AFM up:

I haven't had a great chance to take the truck out and see what it'll do. I need to double check the timing and maybe play with it a little. The road test I did do, I didn't really notice anything...
Yes, they come preoiled and you can get reoiler kits for them. That cone filter is almost twice the size of the K&N cone filter. It's Spectre brand and I bought they're couplers and flex tubing. They have different colors too, if that matters. I didn't need the couplers for this setup because the tubing had it's own connections. I did have to break off the factory mounts of the AFM to fit the filter though.

Here mine my on my white truck set-up
I ordered a silicone hose for the TB to leftover 3" exhaust pipe to stock 22re
3" I.D. hose connected to the modified Supra AFM.
Heres my other truck with a AFM left and battery moved to the right.
This AFM is the 82 Supra plug-in that I found at the junkyard untouched.
The hose is from a Dodge Dakota and the air filter is a Dakota Air Raid from my friend.
Both truck has the LCE Big Throttle Bore.One truck has the later type and the other has the early type.

I too am running the LCE Big Bore TB and I think to get the best benefit of the whole AFM swap I need to swap over the battery/intake. Your set up looks great! Thanks for the pics!

i tested my afm and found that one of the readings between E2-THA was out. would this one thing throw off the afm? im a rookie when it comes to multimeters and afm's and hope i am doing things right. i checked it twice and got the same readings
should be between my readings
E2-VS 20-400 105
E2-VC 100-300 180
E2-VB 200-400 280
E2-THA 4K-7K (around 5*celsius outside) 3100 (i think)
E1-FC infinite infinite (i think, multimeter
stayed at 1)
any help would be great.

Yeah Matt you have the right part numbers there. Why wait on the install? It only takes a few minutes once you have all the parts.

Nice pics Logan! I absolutely agree about the throttle body; it would certainly help you achieve the maximum benefit from this upgrade. One day I'll be putting in my LCE order.

This would be cheaper and the Supra TB is actually larger than the LCE TB.

so i just got a 82 supra AFM what kind of electrical stuff did you guys have to do the swap. or is it straight plug and play? i have a 22re 4x4 1990. and i already have LCE intake but its still kinda restrictive.
