HELP: HPS Intake Install...car dies
So I installed the intake and it died as I started up at first... I thought hey no worries?
I drove around for 20min and get a check engine light.. I'm like great but I realized I forgot to put the breather tube on. I removed the negative terminal to clear the codes...started the car up again but dies out first time...start it up again, it is fine. Am I missing something? I saw something about changing the MAF sensor around to direct airflow but no idea what that even means!

Don't u have to give some throttle for the first start up after changing the intake? I thought I remember having to put my foot down on the gas cause the car hesitated to start (like dying), and it was idling very low for a while until the ECU relearns. This was on my old 2011 Camry though. Same thing after cleaning the throttle body. Maybe ur throttle body is dirty?

I noticed a change in throttle response when I installed the HPS intake. No issues with starting after the install. Since going to the Invidia catback exhaust I feel an even stronger throttle response. I've had traction control kick in many times since installing both.

The OP got his intake from.
Currently out of stock at HPS for the black one.
Restocking the black one in March, I can however get you a polished one!

I think this one uses the stock sound generator, unlike the K&N one which deletes everything and makes it worthless.
