CAI Installation HELP

victor · 11-21-2006, 03:47 PM

Hi i have an R18 and got a FUJITA CAI installed on my car. I think the person who installed it didnt reset the computer settings. Because whenever i go reverse or turn sometimes the car wants to stall. It actually stalled on my couple time already. And also Whenever I floor my car, it pulls and then when the RPM climbs to like 2.5K - 3.5K sometimes it feels like I let of the gas and then pressed it again. I mean it feels like the car stops pulling and then pulls again. It feels like the car actually looses power on those RPM Range. Are these things normal to occur when you have a CAI installed? I heard that you have to disconnect you battery for like 15mins or so. I just need the complete inturctions on how to reset it or make the car learn. The CAI has been installed in my car for about 3 months now.

No no. Do it when the car is off. That's what I did when I put on my INJEN CAI. I actually took the battery out of the bay so I can easily access everything. I also read somewhere that after you reconnect the battery, you should let the car run idle for a few mintures to learn idle speed, a/f ratio, etc since the block is not getting more air. Hope this helps.
