Just ride out the CEL it will come and go intermittently No biggie won't hurt anything although the light is annoying

How confident are you about that AND how long before it goes out?
Lastly is there anyway to reset the ECU to make it go away without riding it out?

as long as the computer is not reading the too lean code every time the car is running (which is likely the case), the CEL will reset after 3 consecutive run cycles where the code is not thrown. after 40 consecutive clean cycles, it will be erased from the history, as well.

if you just got it after running the intake clean for a while, might not hurt to check to make sure everything is still tight...

I can check to make sure everything is still tight, check the MAF sensor and make sure no issues there as well. I also think Im going to take it up to Autozone to see what code it is spitting to see if its the lean code issue (which isnt anything to be concerned about) or something else that i should be concerned about.

Also I'm DEFINITELY getting the stage 2 kit when that comes out, Do you think they ECU reflash and the larger fuel injectors will stop these lean code CAI issues as well?

still no CEL for me, I was one of the first to get these intakes. Mine does sit against the fender, but it doesn't cause me any problems. I think you guys might have damaged your sensors, they are really sesitive.

I would be SHOCKED if I damaged the sensor because I barely touched that thing, but I guess how would I be able to be certain at this point?

How frequent is a "run cycle" Meaning basicaly, how often and how long are these cycles so i have an idea of when this damn things should be turning off if all is well...
