ok.today i installed HPS SRI.i feel the difference and sounds so nice.but when in sport mode,on heavy paddle,the CEL came.any ideas what should i do? may be not full paddle in 1 st week so the ECU learns ?

Update: i did surf the net and than did 'Idle learn' procedure.it is starting the car after ECU reset and let it idle for 3 minutes.than turn off for 1 min.than again start for 3 minutes.
i did it and the CEL never came back.i drove it like crazy it sport mode but NO CEL
so any one getting CELs from after market intakes (not D.I.Y intakes),do this 'Idle Learn' procedure and you will be fine

 

the CEL comes again.so it proves that GE8 ECU needs tuning.1st buy any tuning solution than buy addons.
i cheched every connection.they are all tight.
may be because i have hybrid which has CRZ engine.may be i would have ordered CRZ intake....
do other GE8 users have this problem?

 

i checked the CEL with scanner and the error says' fuel system too rich'
funny.i thought it must be running lean due to more air.but its the opposite.any suggestion?

 

P0172 - System Too Rich

 

Thanks for sorting that out for me.any way i have put back my stock intake just to test out whether its the HPS SRI casuing it or other things.i will confirm after few runs.LOL the car runs so smooth with stock intake.with HPS some time it jerked in very low RPM's.with HPS my fuel mileage was down(e.g.. from 20Km/L to 14 Km/L,highway from 18 to 14.) i think that plenum in stock air intake is very important which most short rams lack

 

More than 400 Km with OEM intake and no CEL. so this confirms that this not for Hybrid versions of GE8.may be after a tune it can be used.

 

Can you help me install mines? First time I'm installing anytging on a car and I bought it used for $115 but no manual. Ik you gotta remove the crank case vent hose and the coolant hose from the stock air box but where do I put them on the short ram?

 

There is no coolant hose on airbox,its on throttle body.leave that as it is.but i think factory bracket holds both crank vent and that coolant hose to throotle body so that why you are confused.i think i used a small hose to directly connect coolant hose.and for crank vent hose there is a place in short ram intake for that

 

So the crank case vent hose goes onto the sri after its installed. Does the coolant hose go back in the same place on the tb? And did you have to replace any coolant?

 

yes crnk vent hose goes to sri.and coolant hose to its place.no coolant will come from it.so no need for coolant replace

 

Ok. Thanks. I was watching the install video for the k&n sri and they do I it pretty fast and it through me off when they said I might have to replace coolant lol. But thanks for your help!

 

message me! Im interested
