  • SLP CAI is IN

    alright i installed the cai on my 95' 3.4l sunday, but i haven't been able to drive it since then because it's getting repaired (parking lots suck).

    I was wondering if there was anything i should do after i get it back? I saw in a earlier post someone was talking about pulling fuses and reinserting them or something along those lines.

    As far as i know the only thing you need to do is disconnect the battery and then hook it back up (if you didn't do it during the install), so your computer can adjust the intake of more airflow.

      Thats what I did last week when I put mine in. Unhooked the batt while I worked on it. Just unhook it for like 1/2 hour.

        It really only needs to be unhooked for about 10 minutes, but if you unhook it while you install the CAI, you will be fine.

          If your radio has Theftlock on it make sure you know the secret code before you unhook your battery you will be locked out of the radio.

          I didn't know my code (bought it used) and I had to take it to the dealer to get it unlocked after I installed my CAI. Luckily they didnt' charge me anything since they are the one I bought it from and they should have either reset the code or told me what it was.

          Of course if you don't have Theftlock or don't have a factory stereo don't worry about it :)

            You don't need to disconnect the battery. That is just a myth. The computer won't restrict any air coming in if you didn't...

              the computer will adjust eventually either way i think, but unplugging it i believe speeds up the process.

                That is correct. After 200-300 miles the computer will adjust to the incoming airflow. However, resetting it will speed it up like you said.
