  • Car won't hardley idle after CAI install. HELP

    I installed my SLP Cold Air Induction (which took about 1 hr) about half way during the instalation i disconnected the positive battery terminal for a half an hour. Then i instaled it and road it under pretty hard throttle for about half an hour. Like your supposed to. Now the problem is it won't hardly idle and about dies on me when i pull in the clutch to stop or shift gears. I need your help quick because tomarow (Monday) school starts and i'd like to show off my car.The problem seems to start when my car gets hott.

    the first thing i would do would check to make sure everything is connected proberly. When i installed my rk sport ram air i accidently pulled the intake hose off the throttle body just alittle bit, when i drove it around it would drive fine when i was giving it gas but as soon as i would let off the engine would die. Opened the hood and sure enough it was taking air in from two locations and killing the motor, just make sure your entire intake system is proberly sealed

        Make sure you didn't disconnect any vacuum lines also make sure your IAT module is connected right.
