Instead of wasting a post like above, from what i've seen, K&N has been popular to give the CEL. Injen has been more lucky. I still haven't gotten a CEL and i'm using injen. I believe fujita also has a high CEL rate, but I didn't read up much on that one.
Other people do the "airbox mod" and claim cel's only come in close to freezing temperature.
I believe theres a "how-to" for it in the correct section of the board.

 

The intake mod does not only get a CEL in cold temps. I was running it with a K&N filter last fall (60-70 F) when my light came on. The circumstances were very similar to the latest time my Injen intake threw a code. I was driving like 25 mph in second for a VERY long period of time on city/military base roads. The light never went out with the airbox mod but with my injen as soon as i got some good airflow and like 2 restarts the light was out and has been for over a month. It was only the second time the light has come on it the 4 months or so i ahve had the intake.

 

anybody have any idea of which air intake is the better one. what kind of result with the injen intake.

 

Yes i do and i love it!!

 

i am getting a injen cold air intake this week and was wondering what people have to say about it. like what kind of horsepower and torque gains does it give.

 

well my intake is installed and i have the older one with the tube that pushes the filter into the bumber. i was wondering where people contacted injen to get the revised tube. i emailed injen and waiting a response.

on a side note, i have been fighting wiht my cel since i put this intake on. but i think i found out my problem. make sure your clamps are tight. i think mine loosened up, after i tighten them up and re-fit the tube, cel goes away under 5 minutes

 

what is the internet adresse for the XTC site??? or what is the part number for this model

 

Where can I find more pics of your car?

I am just getting my trunk shaved and lowering it too. Antenna, lock and wing gone. LOL

thanks

 

My car is running rich ever since the new AEM CAI.Anyone else having this problem???

 

see this thread is good, but now can i get a list of the intakes that are guaranteed to not cause a CEL?

 

You can get the cai from cobalt-addiction.com, you can see more pictures of my car in the members ride section, or pictures and videos.

 

so your saying that you have no CEL?
if so im considering

 

I dont have a CEL but it is definately running rich.Seems to perform and run fine but its burning too much fuel for sure.

 

Yupp no CEL, great intake, dyno proven 10whp too!

 

I got a CEL with my K&N intake. I think I have read posts where people get CEL's with just about all of them. And of course some people don't get them at all...


In my case the maf was reading low and that caused a CEL.

 

do any intakes not get a cel ?????

 

I've had my injen installed for a while, AND I installed it myself. (uh oh).
But no CEL yet.

 

just to let you know the stock box is 232$ cdn.just got one for mine.hit a cat(yes a cat!!!)and scrapped the bumper ,rads and air box!.

 

anyone have a ss/sc burning rich?occasional black smoke out of tailpipe?My tailpipe has to be cleaned evey so often from carbon deposits.

 

stock

 

Most all the ss/sc get black smoke out the exhaust, i get alot with my set up.

 

thats what i figured

 

Same here. My tail pipe is one dirty *****.

 

I search the part number for the injen intake for a cobalt SS/SC 2006 it is SP7026 because they say it's for a 2.2L

 

ok I search in the entire forum for someone who have the AEM LONG intake not only the short one...and I fund nothing...

So if someone have one... is it possible to give me te part number

thk....
