One suggestion was to disconnect the plug from the MAF and drive around for 30 minutes and then plug it back in.

Disconnecting and reconnecting the battery did nothing to help the problem.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello Everyone, Had a fabspeed exhaust and an Evoms Cold Air Intake done on my 2002 Cab and thought I could share the following information.
1) First the exhaust sounds great. If you are looking for a raucously loud exhaust, this isn't it. In fact under normal acceleration, it does not seem any louder at all, but has a deeper throatier sound that comes on even greater under hard acceleration. Sounds great and I am very pleased because I didn't want it to be too lound.
And the best thing is that I am starting to be able to set car alarms off again in the parking deck at work, just like when I had my 500 hp Firebird with a wide open Borla Exhuast...
2) Problem, when I first picked up the car, it ran rough then started stalling....frequently! Also the PSM light and the ABS light were both on.
Disconnecting and reconnecting the battery did nothing to help the problem.
One suggestion was to disconnect the plug from the MAF and drive around for 30 minutes and then plug it back in.
Instead I took it back at the shop they cleaned the MAF out thoroughly and the problem was fixed and did not return.
3) I can definately tell a difference in the throttle response and acceleration. The car feels like it is able to take a bigger breath.
4) I bought the exhuast and the intake from Dan at Vivid Racing and I can tell you that he was responsive, helpful immediately when I had a problem and patient with my questions that must have clearly revealed my lack of mechanical knowledge. Thanks Dan...
I hope this helps someone . Blessings, KevinJax
Kevin, I have the same setup - with no problems at all. I am using the MAXFLOW Fabspeed - love the sound also. and yes Vividracing staff (Dan) are great, they are now my one stop shopping place.
