Well I'm back to report that it's working good now MAF is clean filter also this time with a lite coat of, but now Codes (2) P0300, P0171, P0174 I deleted them with my Actron Scanner but P0171 & P0174 seems to come back might let the pros take it out. That's my update for now time for new synthetic oil & trans fluid then put my 20% tint on see ya!!!1996 Cayenne Red Camaro 3.8L V6

Be careful converting over to synthetic oil depending on the millage. I wouldnt do it if you have over 100,000 miles, again, JHMO. I would however change out the rear diff fluid and put in some good synthetic, and maybe the trans as well. Eric L

It's still in its factory position since putting this CAI on all I get is codes 171 & 174 two each even after deleting them everyday now the first delete code P0300 went away but 171 &174 are driving me nuts I'm thinking about taking it to the shop and get it taking off.
