yeah so like the day before yesterday i was making a turn into a blockbuster from 4th gear, put the clutch in then dead. Car stalled, put the clutch in and was cranking it because i almost hit the damn curb. It wouldn't start until i came to a complete stop but i think its because i still had it in 4th (does it matter? i had the clutch in...) anyway as soon as i turned it on my CEL came on... stayed on for like a day and then it turned off. should i go check it out or just forget about it?

 

So your SES came on and you just continued to drive the car, even after it stalled on you? Did you ever bother to pull the code?

 

pull what now

 

What does this have to do with an Injen install?

Are you running an intake without a tune?

 

Pull the code, as in find out what it was. The code means something. You have to go read it with a scan tool - you can do this at Autozone or Advanced Auto if you don't have your own.

 

ok then. yeah untuned im gonna go to autozone in a bit then

 

Ok, you're untuned, but are you saying you have an Injen intake, are untuned, and that caused you to stall?

Or did you really just call your engine an "Injen." God, I hope not, because then the Circle of Rice is complete...

 

what mods are on the car? and if the ses light went off then can you still pull the code?

 

yeah injen intake untuned

 

Then get tuned or uninstall the intake until you get tuned.

 

Werd. This is not a car you can just throw an intake or exhaust on without getting a proper tune. There's at least 3 threads per day with people who put an intake / TBE or MBC on and wonder why it stalls / runs rough / etc. Dynoflash has an inexpensive mail-in flash.

 

what would i have to do for that mail=in flash?

 

Go to the Dynoflash forum and read the instructions thread, or go to Dynoflash.com and read the instructions. It's very simple. You just pull out your ECU, put it in a box with a list of your mods/octane/boost, ship it to Dynoflash with payment for the flash and return shipping, he flashes and then sends it back overnight UPS.

You then re-install it and go faster than you've ever gone before.

 

or do you think i should wait for TT to come down i think they're coming may 13th

 

I'm sponsored by Dynoflash and TT is a competitor, but if you can get a custom tune in person from TT, then that's your best bet. That will be better than a mail-in flash, so take the opportunity while you have it.

However, install your stock airbox until then...
