It's made by CRC. You can get it at your local autozone, advanced auto, etc.. Your also gonna need a weird screw driver it's called like a T20 Tork or something (6 point with a hole in the middle). It fixed the rough idle I had 100%.

That's a Torx driver, with a T20 'Anti-Theft' bit. Try the MAF cleaner and ECU reset since they're basically free. If it's still acting up, take it to a tuner.

Kk cool. So the Torx driver is used to unscrew the actual sensor? I remember being able to remove the MAF from the stock HR intake when I was installing Injen intakes with regular phillips or something. Was that it, or was there an actual removable sensor on top of that?

I have a HR btw, heard some years didn't need the torx?

Well to disconnect the housing from the intake was just a 10mm socket. but taking the actual sensor from the housing requires a T20 Torx. At least that's how it worked for me.
