Has anybody done the CAI on thair GT-S
Couse I have one on good Brand Injet and i'm having problems.
Low power when the engine is cold and I get a check engine all the time missfire on cylinder 1 and 2.
I read that it could be the intake couse the pipe where the air meter goes in is wider and deeper then the original so the air travels slower and the meter dosen't reach the botom and the mixture is lean

that is due to the MAFS reading the air flow improperly, The way you solve this would be to cut the housing of where your OEM airbox had the MAFS mounted and place the MAFS back into position of the oem one that way itll read the proper air flow. Another way of solving it would be to sell it and buy a cheap ebay one thats 2.5" equivalent to the oem piping and put it on, NO CEL WITH THAT ONE (i have it on mine, sold the injen and aem one)

I would put the stock filter with the box back on but I don't have it I bought it like that

So the OEM Pipe is 2.5"?
