WTF gruppe M !!

e90kid · 12-29-2006, 05:26 PM

i just installed my brand new Gruppe M intake. My car is somewhat slower and the RPM range is very chopy from 0-5000. Why is this happening? I disconnected the battery to rest the ECU. What is going on.

I'd say your tubes aren't secure... I know there's got to be better technical jargon to use, but this is the best I could come up with.

PM Ksfrogman for help. He's had his gruppeM for ages.

does this chopy-ness go away after a break in point mabey? does teh car have to get use to the diffrent air intake

mds82 · 12-29-2006, 10:26 PM

also make sure the air sensor is in correctly, and also facing the right direction ( i think)

ksfrogman · 12-29-2006, 10:41 PM

Sounds like you may have a leak. You may have unmetered air not seen by the air mass flow sensor. Recheck your connections. Make sure the sensor is seated properly. Also recheck the wire connector clip to the sensor.
