Well, I installed the jbp vortex intake today and everything went wrong. Fitment was a big problem and my car bogs like crazy at idle. It jumps up to 2500 rpms then down around 600. Then after it does that, it stalls on me. i check everything and it's all tight. I was wondering if the maf sensor has to face a certain way..... Can anyone help?

 

Yes the maf sensor does have to face a certin way. thats probly your problem. just turn it around and you should be all good.

 

thanks srt. i'll work on that tonight. I hope thats the problem. I'll post how everything turns out.

 

after that, disconnect yer battery for 30 min, negative terminal, after that should run good.

 

i just got done switching the maf around. everything runs great and the SC whine is amazing. install was a little rough but it was worth it in the end.

 

the only thing i found hard about the jbp intake install was the one clamp by the coolant bottle. everything else is perfect fit.

 

Did any of you look inside the intake and see if there is anythign in there? There site ses it spins the air and I want to know if they put one of then stupid "Tornado" like things in there.

Later

 

lol that would be awesome.. line the whole pipe with about 10 lil tornadoes.. lol

 

Do you have the revised intake ? Does it sit farter up/back than the "normal" intake ?

 

He's just refering to the lip on the inside of the pipe which creates turbulant flow on the inside diameter of the bend, which is why it is not producing any codes.

there no tornado thingy aof any sort

 

i got a code the first few days, only when i redline though, normal driving, no code, ive since redlined a few times and it hasnt popped up, i think the comp wasnt used to that much air at a 7000 redline, but so far i hanvt seen it since.

 

which way should the maf be facing cause im next up on the list for this intake..

 

there's an arrow on the maf. install it so the air flows in that direction
