Terry's response was that my intake made barely a difference.. but it's probably messing up the MAF reading somehow. I had thought about getting a MAF pipe with an air diffuser. I can't think of the proper term right now. I really do actually miss the intake sound and the crackles. I didn't think it was that big of a difference, except for the past week going to work it's been quite a bit muted. Still.. I'm getting closer to emptying my tank and filling up with some new gas. I hope my car behaves a lot better.. but it would mean the second I got bad gas my car will be unhappy again
Let's just see what happens.
