are you talking about an air intake or the piggy back? the air intake has nothing to do with your engine bogging down. and it doesnt affect your battery. now also if it messes with your crank case pressure you can get a lil valve cover filter.

Are you driving a MT or an AT? If you are driving an MT then you havnt learned to drive your car correctly and this post is gonna turn into the other one with the car bucking all the time in 1st gear. Its not the SRI at fault it's physics. Inertia is a ***** no matter what you have installed.

Ya the SRI works fine, this guy is pissed b/c it doesn't give him turbo gains. The SRI was my first install, went great and my car runs great. The Intake did make a not so good noise at first but I tightened the filter and it broke in.

Thanks!!
Thanks!!

What is everyone talking about? Can no one read what I originally said... I said nothing about the intake affecting my battery. I said I unplugged the battery. And of course an intake can limit engine power if it is defective or limiting air flow in any way. I also did not expect any significant gains out of it. I had a problem with mine, doesn't mean everyone else has to have the same issue.
If everyone could read they would see that my real complaint was with their customer service lying, and making false promises. You don't see me posting on their threads about how terrible their product is.. I assumed it was my car/part combination or something along those lines.

if something is wrong with his intake , whether it be the intake or the install or any of the intake components (MAF, piping, filter) it can and WILL make your engine bog...
its not just an "air tube" the MAF sensor in our cars is very sensitive.

this thread is full of such massive fail.
Things to check
1) make sure everything is tight, and theres no air getting in other places.
2) make sure the air flow sensor is installed in the right direction (big one to check).
3) Make sure everythign is on straight and its not crooked so as to impede air flow.
I dont see any reasons for an engine to bog down after an intake install, regardless of what intake it is. Something else here is the culprit, not the intake (pending its installed 100% correctly)

Makes some valid points, i didnt mean to imply the INTAKE was the problem but part of the problem (ie. the install) most likely something is loose or your MAF sensor may have some oil on it if you improperly oiled your filter. just throwing some other things out there. good luck.
I checked all these things.. It's not the first time I have ever done work on my car's. I chose not to use the part for several reasons and after RRM being a dick there is no way I am giving the part another shot on my car.
Thanks for the suggestions though.
