Default Wow I'm a dumb A$$!!!

So I was installing my JWT pop chargers on my 07, everything went pretty smooth untill I went to start the car. I unplugged the battery though before I started the car up for about 15 mins. Started it up and it was sputtering like crazy and would turn off after 15 sec...

Now here is the dumb part... I thought I'd play some music while I'm working on it, so I think taking the MAF sensors out at the same time was not a good idea, as I have read in someone elses post...

I got the cel light and everything else lit up on my guages, so I'm going to try and unhook the batter overnight and see if that helps

Any suggestions?

Yes I did, checked over everything...

I'll try this battery unhooked over night and we will see if it helps tomorrow in the afternoon... if not, than I will have to do the ecu reset...

I wouldn't even be able to take it to the dealer, car won't drive...

I feel bad for you.

That's why I tell people to forget these lame aftermarket intake kits.

Do I need to follow the whole reset on there or can I just do the first (ecu) reset....

Cuz that's a big process to reset the TPS and all that other stuff....

Anyone else run into this?

Thx

The reason I unplugged the battery is because I have read that you should give it a reset when installing new mods so that the ECU learns the mods, even thought there won't be a whole lot of performance change. Besides I did this to my 03 every time I installed pc/spacer/HFC and I had no problems at all.
