Defintly weird man, has to be the MAF's, When you reinstall make sure you are super carful with them. I would put mine in a ziplock bag so I did not get any dirt on them.. Like said before make sure everything is sealed and tight. With all the intakes I have done I have never seen this either.

 

First question, what is the CEL code it threw???

You need to get an OBDII scanner, and check it.

 

Right. The code may still be in the memory, but fixing the problem will take it out of LIMP mode.

He stated replacing with the stock intakes had the car running normal, so the intakes are more than likely causing the problem. There has to be a bad reading/connection, or a restriction somewhere.

 

The inside of the pipes on mine (just installed last night) were horribly filthy black residue and sout..possibly from welding the fittings. Try cleaning your pipes. Also, just leave the sensors plugged in the entire time, that way you know the car isn't pissed about that.

 

Like i said guys ! Everything is back to stock and the problem Diasapered. I will recheck the pipes and see I'f there is any dirt or anything thing I can find just seems to easy to get it wrong.

 

Thanks everyone for your help! Really appreciated. I will try cleaning them!

 

Ok everything is ready to go and I will start but I will disconnect battery while I try to reinstall. If this fails I'm out of ideas, don't know what else to do I checked everything to be tight and secure and in place and everything looks clean and ready for install let's see what happens .

 

Ok I retried and no luck at all! Just dies. WTF R2C or am I missing something?

 

Frustrating.
The welds around the MAF sensor port are perfect? No cracks or breaks?

 

No tHey are fine I put stocks back on and it's perfectly fine again. Idk what it is w these intakes .

 

Sucks! Next stop Marketplace "R2C brand new Price to Sell"

 

$400 shipped takes them brand new assembled ready to mount Guess my car don't like them anymore.

 

You should contact R2C maybe you can get a replacement

 

I purchased from Kyle import parts pro I spoke to them and I'm expecting a call back let's see what they say cause they also didn't understand and are looking into it. So hopefully we get to the bottom of this!

Ps Boosah answer my text foo!!!

Let me know about that pic I sent u

 

Is the only difference the intakes? You're not using certain tubing for one install and different for another? Is the rubber housing that connects the pipe to the throttle body tight and secure? Your best bet, like someone else said, is to install one at a time and narrow it down to possibly only one intake causing the issue. If the MAF sensors work with the stock system then you can rule that out as well as any part of the intakes from there down. Your issue more than likely is near the pipe to throttle body connection. Strange though either way....
