Are you referring to reseting the battery?

that was exactly what I thought... I think a couple of us asked if you had the MAS in the right direction . Glad you got it figured out though!

ya i had the same problem when i installed my intake, and yes it was because of the MAS too.

Instructions failed to mention you have to put that thing back on , haha.

glad your car is better now though.

Just look at the honeycomb... that should be to the filter side. The mass should also have an arrow on top of it that points the flow direction.
