And there is a right and wrong way to index or "clock" that plastic air straightener. Mine had a dot on the outside of the plastic piece that you line up with a corresponding dot or mark on the tube. It matters if you want your MAF calibration right.
OP: maybe avoid multiple mod changes at the same time or close to each other? You come on the board, report yet another in a series of seemingly never ending problems, raise a short cryptic complaint, and then after a series of efforts by us to get more info we find out that you keep changing things. We go off on a wild goose chase only to find out that you have made other changes.
Now we know you switched to AP. Nothing wrong with that, but should have told us. Then we find out you have loaded the wrong map for the wrong intake and don't seem to understand where to get the MSCAI map or which one you need.
We knew you were at stage 2 with your mods but don't know if you have upgraded your fuel pump internals which is absolutely essential to run AP stage 2 maps.
Your wide band O2 sensor got fouled. You cleaned it without exploring why it fouled.
Are there any more surprises out there you intend to getting around to sharing?
Please consider flashing back to stock, which I believe is AP zero, or reinstalling your HT flash until you get the engine operation and fuel consumption issues resolved and a stable baseline in place. I respectfully ask you to NOT add any new mods, not even pump internals (if not already done), until the other issues are resolved.
Finally, please edit your signature to list your current mods so that when you ask for help we do not have to read or reread all your posts to figure out what you've done to your car. If you have multiple threads open with different issues in each one without telling us about the others we have to chase all over the place to try to make some sense of what is going on with your car.
Can you understand why I am frustrated and wonder why I should try to continue to help you?
