Starting problem
Ever since I installed a MAC CAI, my car has had serious starting problems. The only way to get it to run is to sit in the car and pedal the gas between 1-2k rpm until it decides to idle. After that, it runs just fine.
I would initially just think that I need a tune for the CAI, but last winter, before I got the CAI, the car had the same problem, and I assumed it was just the cold starts it didn't like. Now that it's started the problem up again, I don't know what to think.
Should I look into the tuning, or start checking out the sensors? The car has a lot of miles, so it could just be a bad sensor...like the IAC or something...?

Turns out the hose that connects the IAC to the intake...came off. I was not responsible for that part of the install. Luckily, the guys at Oriellys were nice and gave me a peice of scrap hose that worked just fine
