AEM Cold Air Intake Problems

[natestros420]

I just installed my AEM CAI and now every time i push in the clutch the rpms drop real low and sometimes stalls. If Anyone could Tell me what i need to do to fix this problem or any ideas or comments i would greatly appreciate it.

make sure everything is secure and the maf is plugged in. is it ok when the clutch is out?

Yea its fine when clutch is out you know like in gear or at idle but it only does it when like say i am runnin in 4th gear then let off throttle and push in clutch to come to a stop the rpms dip real low. As for the MAF it is plugged in but i think i might have some issues with the BPV and how it connects to intake and intercooler piping. The aem part sheet said i was supposed to get a total of 8 hose clamps and there was only 6 total. So some of the hoses connecting to BPV and around the tubing and elbows are not Clamped down. But it doesnt seem as if they are leaking air or anything like that. Would the direction of the BPV have anything to do with it??

the arrow on the bpv should be pointing towards the intake. it definately sounds like the bpv is leaking air. you can probably find extra hose clamp at any auto parts store.

you have a vac leak somewhere.

[natestros420]

i think the vacuum leak is coming from the small hose running from the stock bpv nipple to what looks like the manifold or throttle body

i had the same problem on my ES it was my throttle body, but its definetly becuase you got a leak somewhere
