No need to wait 10-15min, disconnect the NEG batt cable and hold the break down for 15 seconds reconnect, if done correctly your time should read 1:00 and if you had a cd in the player it should eject.

Sorry dude but it is possible, The EVO ECU is very very sensitive. the stock intake pipe is pretty small this causing a starvation of air. I know that you have read several posts about people loosing hp becuase they install a intake. The reason for this is because aftermarket intakes are usually 3" in diameter causing a larger airflow and the ECU will see this causing the ECU to dump more fuel and you to loose power unless you retune your car. This drastic change can cause your ECU to throw a code after time. This is the last time I will probably respond to this becuase I don't think it is worth a pissing match so please take this for what it is worth. Have a good day.

I severly doubt it and I respectfully disagree. It's not a big deal anyway.

I've been seeing boost spikes as high as 23 PSI (In 9F weather no less) with my AEM intake in place and no SES light, for what it's worth.

My SES light has a mind of it's own. I had to reset it about once a weel for 2 months, now it has been quiet for a month. Go figure.
