magnaflow is good, but i would prefer custom cat-back.... but if money isn't the case then get a Greddy EVo cat-back....

 

HEY!! thats my engine bay!! lol, its all good, sexy isnt it everyone??

 

Hey, you needed to get a new hood anyway, right? I had some clown hit me in the rear, for what it cost to get a new bumper installed and painted, I could have gotten a damn full body kit. I get popped in the rear again, thats what I'll do. And reinforce it with steel beams... and diamond plate...

 

OWNAGE!!

 

i got my exhaust on today, ill try and get some footage of it this weekend if it isnt rainy all weekend

i got 2 people to tell me it sounded nice today, i dunno though, i cant really hear it to well because of the intake being loud. But ill take there word for it

 

Does anyone know how to reset the Service Engine Soon light? I put a new Cold Air Intake on my Lancer O-Z and we forgot to reconnect the Mass Air Flow Sensor and started the car we immediatly realized what was wrng and shut the car off hoever the light still came on and I dont know how to get it reset? Does anyone know if there is a way other than taking it to the dealer?

 

alright, this same thing happened to be, obviously hehe, but anyway, a neighbor of mine works on cars, all he did was take off one of the battery terminals *like the postive and/or negetive* i forget which one, but try the negetive first, and if that dotn work, try the postive. You may loose all ur radio presets if you do the positive, but it should work, i think it the was positive one he did for me and that light turned right off

hope that works

 

Ya, I screwed up and forgot to hook up the MAS cable before I started my car after SRI install. I undid the pos cable on the battery for about 15 minutes, hooked it back up and then started the car and let it idle for about 15-20 minutes. No problems since. Good Luck!!

 

ya, i talked to the guy today who helped me clear up my prob when i forgot to plug in the MAS again, he said he took off the positive battery terminal, we didnt even let it idle for 15 mins, it was ready and roarin, so definatly try that if u havent yet ecartrite . . .

and i think im taking off my resonator tomorrow, ill let u guys know how that goes as well.

 

yes. i don't see anyone saying what specifically will happen to the engine or even what it will do by not having it hooked up.
right. it will make it run rich and turn the check engine light on, plus give terrible gas mileage. the oxygen sensor also tells the ecm how to mix the fuel and advance the timing. i think the o2 sensor did this entirely, before the MAS existed. i believe they now work together and if one is not working the engine will not blow up, melt, disintegrate, or self-destruct. i must of damamged it when unplugging or re-pugging it to get it out of the way so i can install my intake. once i plugged it in, it shakes and idles low and when i give it gas it starts to die. i have to unplug it until i can get a replacement. it's hard to believe that unplugging and replugging would ruin/blow it but what else could it be?
since i need a new one, and the dealer wants $288, can i get an aftermarket one for about the same price?

 

aftermarket MAS? Not sure if such thing exists. Try wrecking yards, or you could find an alternative MAS, I believe Stew used something from a lawnmower, but I wouldn't recommend it. If you can't find anything, get the $288 one from the dealer. Will save you money in the long run.
