alright i just got done installing an injen intake with ic pipe. as far as a power increase i certainly dont feel it now, but then again i only drove it 4 miles around the hood.

so now i hear the blowoff valve sputtering as it vents, is this normal sound or should it make the psssssshhhhh sound?

do i need a tune to get it to feel like it was stock or can i get an a/f controller and maybe that would help. (hopefully getting an exhaust soon!!)

i can deffinately feel a loss of power will it change or is gonna stay this way. im not even sure if i want to drive on it to much right now, do you think it has to be broken in?

 

oh and thanks for any help that you can offer, but if your gonna tell me to do a search go **** off, thanks again and have a great night.

 

same issue here.. read my thread :/

 

im bumpin' here for some more input, but i read your post GIsnickers and made one me self.

thanks

 

bump, so your sayin that no one else has experienced this problem, please someone help here.
is the intake suppose to take away all that power?

 

I had the same thing when I installed my K&N typhoon. I was told to drive it a round for a while to let the ECU adjust, but that never helped. I ended up getting an AFC II and now it is fine. You can get a reflash but, if your not done moddnig, get an AFCII so you don't have to keep flashing your ECU everytime you add something. I searched this problem a lot when I was dealing with it and found out the increased airflow from the intake throws off the MAF and your a/f ratios. You can lean the car out with an AFC or flash and then you will get all of your power back plus some. It will pull a lot harder in the upper rpms. Good Luck.

 

alright thanks, ill deff. keep that in mind. but today i went and pulled off the bumper again and retightened every clamp on every hose and then i looked at the diagram and saw that the blowoff valve was on the wrong way, it brought back some of the power. but now i guess i need the afc.

thanks for the help
