    Default Nep cai

    I am such a knucklehead! Yesterday morning I installed the CAI. I was looking at the Charlie mods this morning and noticed I had installed the MAF in the wrong direction Here's to donating horse power in a different direction

    You had to work pretty hard it. I also tried to install it in the wrong direction accidently. I called New Era and they set me straight. Hard to get the coupler over in one direction.

    You would be surprised how many Master Techs have done that and couldnt figure out the driveability issue. I walk over and go " uh Vern, you might want to turn that around" Typical response "F*CK!"

    It still seemed to pull harder and faster when I took it out. Who would've figured hunh! It was probably just my feeble mind thinking I had more horse power. Kind of like a placibo!
