short ram intake

[Masaker]

today i installed a short ram on the gt but there's a big delay from when i press the gas i find it takes much longer to accelerate than with the original oem filter box. Is this normal?

[WytchDctr]

no, I would say that is not normal.

it's not throwing no cel what do you think it could be?

[mtlelantra]

reset the ECU

What short ram intake did you install?

[KeWLKaT]

Yep pull the ECU fuse buddy ;)

What short ram intake did you install?

i dont think that matters...

it is the ECU imo. that thing is still reading for the stock box in there, so the throttle response is still slower (though SRI actually is supposed to increase that).

just food for thought: any performance mod done to engine/exhaust should be followed by an ECU reset so the car can "learn" the new features that you have added.

thanks alot for the help. The short ram is from my 91 accord but i cut it a bit more for the nipple.

When I installed and reset my ECU it didn't reset my trip or my mileage to empty and I get S*** gas mileage now. I have the filter on the end of the snorkel tube for now. Any ideas.Maybe I am having the same problem. BOB

i reset the ecu and there's nomore lag but now i have a cel i went and got the flex pipe done on my car maybe the guy welded to close and burnt it or forgot to plug it in it only come on after i drive a bit not as soon as i reset the ecu and started.

[CRAZIECRACKER]

he forgot to plug in the sensor? the short ram isnt throwing a code, very unlikely. what code are you throwing its probably associated with ur flexpipe.

[Masaker]

i really dont know the code i didnt plug it in but it was perfect till i got the flex done.

so i fixed the cel my o2 sensor was unplugged
