Hello everyone, wondering if someone may be able to assist.
A couple of days ago I installed the Injen Evolution Cold Air Intake and did a full sound tube delete on my manual GT. During installation I disconnected the battery and reconnected it when all was said and done. I started the car and let it idle for a few minutes to allow the computer to sort out the new set up and to get the exhaust to stop burbling. Since this installation I have noticed that the car is driving very differently. My revs are hanging and the car doesn't seem to decelerate, or engine brake, when I press in the clutch. When upshifting, the revs stay high and don't fall like they used to, causing my shifts to either be delayed or to be very jumpy. The same happens when I downshift and rev match, the revs hang too high and the shifts end up rough.
I have installed CAIs on other cars and am used to them barely affecting performance, and certainly not in a negative way. I checked to see if there was a vacuum leak and couldn't find any sign that there was one (vacuum holds at about 16.9 at idle). Does anyone have an idea what could be going on? Do I need to get the car to relearn idle somehow? Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer!
