I have an AEM intake on my balt and am thinking about purchasing the intense stage 3 kit. I hear there are problems with MAF when the aftermarket CAI and stage kits meet, causing lean A/F. Is there anyone that has this setup or close to it with NO PROBLEMS?
thanks.

 

i think the key is to let the PCM learn
ie - drive like grandma for a few days first

 

The Intense tunes are made for the stock box, Intense doesn't work with intakes at all.

 

yeah my intake messes my mine up.

 

tagracecraft, how much is this kit? Is there a flash with it?

 

I would either go with TAG or find someone with HPTuners in your area.

 

do you only offer a stage one? on your site i only see the GM stages and then your upgrade. is that the stage one?

is tag as good or better than intense? anyone have any opinons on either?

 

Intense's should be fine, as long as you let them know that you have an intake, and they can adjust accordingly.

 

+1

Or have someone dyno Tune the car after installation. I have the Intense Stage 3 (w/ 2.8") and had INTENSE dynotune the car themselves. Did a great job. My A/F's are perfect. I do agree, don't ever run an intense, or any other companies "kit" with an CAI without some sort of tuning. Every intake throws the MAF signal off its own %.

 

Is this Mr. McLucky?

LOL!! from toledo OH, it has to be!!! How's it going?
