SS/TC with Injen CAI...CEL/MIL

Ok. So if any of you live in or around Maryland you know how much frickin rain we have had in the last two weeks... Well I have had my Injen SP CAI on for about two weeks now...
This morning of course it's raining it's ass off. So with no other choice I hop in let the car warm up and drive to work. I get all the way to the road my work is on and I throw a MIL (CEL) No "Engine Power Reduced" and not in limp mode.
The worst part about all of this is that I don't have my Dashhawk in the car and i'm sitting at work with no tools wondering about my car...

rant/

Clean your maf out too. reset the ecu. Cobalts front wheel well etc suck. I will never run a CAI on this car without an hydro sheild as above. I put a louver over the wheel well vent hole as well. As it stands stock, its just a hole. With an aftermarket intake on an sc the MAF takes direct splashes of water from the wheel well. Tc has a much better placement of the MAF
