I just got my car back from the shop(had a little accident) and was driving the car yesterday, after reseting the engine for larry's cold air intake, and the check engine light went on. I switched back to the stock piping for the intake and instantly the light went off. I put larry's back on and nothing yet. I did do the reset at night in really cold weather well like 35 - 40 (thats cold in houston). What do you think?

oh by the way i was just reading larrys post and i did that same exact thing that night. I was testing my car and red lined in 3rd and accidently shifted to 2nd instead of 4th and bounced rpms off 8000. just for like 1/8 a second though

I had a similar "problem" with the CE light after installing Larry's intake on my 01RS after resetting the computer initially. Then I let the car sit for 2-3hrs (till it cooled down) and disconected the battery over night, and went through the process again. Never had a CE light since. (knock on wood)
Try that. Can't hurt. It could've been a fluke.

I've had two different aftermarket intakes on my car. The JC Sports intake, and Larry's intake.

I did an ECU reset after installation of both. I have never had a CE light. It gets very cold here. The other day it was 5 when I started my car in the morning. No CE's...

I've also had the JC Sports Aerospeed "Dump" exhaust on my car - 2.5" cat-back exhaust.

Car: MY00 2.5RS

I guess I'm just lucky! http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smile.gif
