: Not so good gas mileage.

It's been a week and two tanks of gas since I had installed the intake and TB, and I have noticed that my mpg is not what it should be. The problem I think it is, is that when I installed the intake a wire broke off from the MAF sensor causing a C.E.L. Some time next week I should be geting a wire harness for the sensor hopping that this fixes the problem.

Have any of you experienced less than average gas mileage after installing your intakes?

Car is in limp mode. Mileage and peformance will suffer greatly. When you geyt the MAF wire replaced you'll need to reset the ECU and then all should be well.

so what all makes it go into limp mode? is it just cause the cel is on or cause of the wire?

I got the new wire harness installed today and I hope that the new harness fixes the problem. I also don't have the C.E.L on. Hopefully my gas mileage will improve.
