Since i am at school now i have little time to mess around with my car anymore. when i went home this weekend i wanted to open up the hood and see what was going on.

lately i noticed that my car was idling a little higher but since it has been colder i knew that was normal. what was not normal was this wierd noise that i got when in the lower rpms. so when i was at home i opened up the comptech intake to see if they had something blocking a large part of the filter. still being a little curious i turned the filter up and looked down the hole and saw nothing. when installing my intake 7+ months ago, sometime in the past month the 90 degree plastic pipe fell off. lucky it was caught by the undercarrige thingie and i put it back on with out a problem.

with the intake hooked by up my car felt totally different, a good bit of power at the lower rpm's and some as it went up.

moral of the story, make sure you tighen the clamp nice and good on the intake

 

i drove around once and felt a thunk...stopped and looked back and lo and behold, my injen filter was laying on the floor...the clamp wasnt tight and the filter slpped right off the end of the intake...thank god it was only a block away from my home
