Stock Air Intake
Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has had problems with their Air Intake. My car seems to choke at exactly 1500 rpms when revving from below 1500.
Also, I am looking for the OEM air intake.. Do any of your guys want to sell your OEM air intake?

I have an OEM air intake for the S laying in the garage. And I am not so sure that your car is "choking" as it is you are "lugging" the engine which may feel like a lag in throttle response. I get the same thing occasionally.

Right now I have a fabspeed unit and thats what is causing the airflow to be cut of around 1500 rpm. It only happens when I'm passing 1500 rpm. There is an abrupt bump for a 1/10 of a second but its noticeable. How much would you consider selling your OEM for?

If you have a real problem you will get an error code if you have it scoped. I don't know why you think the Fabspeed tube is causing the hiccup but if you are convinced call them (1 888 646 4945) - they've owed me 2 t-shirts for 3 months but I still think they are great.

Its funny you mention this I actually just suggested he do the same. Chances are they'll know exactly what his problem is and will be able to either issue him a new one or give him a stock back and maybe a few T-shirts.
