well I finally have time to fix my K&n intake , tighting are the hose, clamp, and screws . check the maf sensor if its put in right .
then I connect back my neg battery wire and ecu fuse .( been disconnect for about a week ) so start my car up sound better then before but I do hear a tac tac tac sound coming from my throttle body connect to my intake tube , is that NORMAL and took it for a spin , still my check engine light
vsc and vsc off was on. Is it from last time that I have to reset it and how. when my car stops at a stop sign it feels like it want to die , shakes a little.
any advise guys....

Go to Autozone or parts store and and have them read your check engine code number and tell us what it is. Some stores will re-set it for you.
my be the MAF gasket is torn or leaking.
