AEM Intake Installed = Car now hesitates

MrSir · 07-02-2013, 01:05 PM

I had the eti boxes working just fine for almost a year. Now ive cut them out and the engine runs just fine. I do sense a bit of an odd response, cant quite explain it, but i think its due to running lean and my car not being tuned. Ill get it tuned in the next couple of weeks and ill let you know if theres a difference. Other than that, no check engine light or other problems with cutting the ETI boxes off.

How did you exactly "cut the out." Did you pull the chip out of the little eti box??

i havent opened my ETI box but all you'd have to do is literally cut the box out of the circuit and solder the wires together accordingly to use it as an extension.

For those with OBD monitoring gear, did you notice anything weird with the intake air temperatures?
