Check to make sure that you tightend down everything well when you installed your intake. A leak can throw off the readings that the MAS is getting, which can be the cause of your SES light.

Pull the negative cable off the battery for 30sec or so then reattach the light should go a way then, by pulling the negative cable it resets the internal computer and therefore turns the light off. my lancer did this when i put my intake on so i reset it, then everything was fine.

it is most likely the o2 sensor. i have the same problem right now. go to a mechanic and have them hook it up to their computer and they will tell you what the proplem is. its not the intake...
