K&N Cold Air Intake Installation Question

Better safe than sorry. I wouldn't risk it. How hard is it to disconnect it anyway? An extra 5 seconds of your time?

risk? u serious?

i think the precaution is for someone not to accidentally start the car without the maf's plugged in.


oh and a few more seconds to reset the windows maybe?

Ah, forgot about the window reset thing, disregard then. Back in the day, we didn't have these kinds of window do hickeys that go up and down on their own when you opened the door.

Kenchan's right then. Just do it

the hell you talking about. back in the day my car had a manual crank window opener thingie.

just to impress people at the toll booths and drive-thru's for no reason, i would crank open the windows smoothly as if i had luxurious power windows.
