Are you getting a "check engine light"?....
I had problems getting the MAF to read well from the fender mount cold air kit I had...When I called Pro-M they told me that the air flow caractoristics(sp) change becuase of the 90 degree elbow on the cold air kit and that cuases the maf to read incorrectly...

Why dont you listen to the advise given to you?...Do you have a check engine light?...Why dont you put the stock air box back on and see if that makes a difference...Did you even read the TPS voltage?....Even if it's not the TPS, CAI kit atleast by checking them you rule them out and are one step closer to figuring your problem out...
I'm sorry, but I hate post where people ask for help and dont even try the advise given to them.... ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
