I just got my short ram intakes installed, they sound great! Love the growl and sound difference at high rpms. But strangely, when i hit the gas pretty hard at lower speeds ~15-20 mph, the engine engages, then pauses/bucks for a quick moment, then engages again. Its almost as if the engine dies out completely for a second. This started happening as soon as I installed and took it for a spin. Anyone know what the problem might be?

 

Like it's bogging down?

 

check your MAF sensors.

 

^yeah i agree check the MAF's

 

disconnected the battery for a few hours then it will reset the ECU, everything should be alright i hope and make sure there is no water in the MAF sensors, and make sure everything installed correctly.

 

+1 for the MAF, pretty much everyone who has similar kind of problems from intakes are from the MAF sensors

 

check all your hoses again you might have a slight leak

 

check that you didn't install the mafs backwards. the thin side that has the "hole" should be facing the filter. wish i had a pic of the maf to explain it better.
