Ive got a bunch of mods to install but i just finished putting on my new weapon r intake the other day and when i am at low rpms like backing out of a parking spot and using the clutch alot my car will stall sometimes. What is the problem? Is the new intake leting too much air in and my car isnt putting enough gas in. I know i am gonna have to get it tuned but i just want to know what the problem is here

 

Sounds strange. My intake never gave me any problems like that. Don't have a weapon r intake. I have buschur racing.

 

The MAF is very sensitive and alot of intakes **** it off. The turbulence from the open element confuses it.

 

Why not put the stock intake back on and see if it cures the issue? Only takes a few minutes to swap that stuff. Then you won't be curious anymore, you'll know it's either the new intake or not.

Good luck!

 

I know it is prob the new intake but i guess i shouldve asked this q in the first place when i get my tune it shold fix the prob right?

 

The tune should fix it. Are you taking it to a tuner? tuning yourself? or doing a mail-in flash? If you're doing the mail in, just make sure you include the intake as one of your mods.

 

well i was going to mail it to dynoflash but do you think i will get a better tune at a tune shop or by dynoflash?

 

here try this... it happend to me installing/moving my bov... i had the flash done the day before so I thought that messed my car up..

Anyways... check your install of the intake. The hose going from the turbo to the MAF is connected by a pretty weak *** band/clamp and can easily loosen if you push down hard enough. It happend to me and my car would not hold idle and would "drown" in gas, cause the MAF sensed too much air and tried to compensate with too much gas. I realized that while I was under the car trying to figure out if the flash fucted something up and then when I looked up at the intake.. bam... the connection was split open. fixed it, tightened the **** out of it and the car started with no problem.

Before trying to figure that out... my Evo would die when i let go of the clutch and idle would go from 1K rpms and down and then die off.

Good luck!

 

Yes you need a tune and that will fix the low RPM stall and second take off the weapon R intake and put something better in.

 

its not the weapon r plastic POS its the new secret weapon very sexy stainless intake

 

got pic?
IM also looking for a stainless mesh filter. Currently using Buschur's and no prob.

 

guarantee it's the intake. i had the same problems until i switched to the injen kit.
