well, my friend and i were working on his 99 cobra... not doing anything major, just a K&N and removing the silencer (finally convinced him to do it, been trying for almost 2 years since he got the car). when i put in the filter and took off the silencer he started it up and the thing would not idle at all.... it wouldnt even hang, just cut right off as soon as he let off the gas, i checked to make sure everything was plugged in and tightened down, and it still didnt idle. so we reset the computer in it and tried again, same thing. then, we put the extremely dirty paper filter back in it, and same thing, no idle.... so then we put the silencer back on and the thing ran beautifully.... both extremely confused by this point, we decided to put the k&n in with the silencer on to see what would happen... it ran great again.... then we were sitting there and i suggested that we pull the silencer back out just to see what would happen, and when we did, the thing ran wonderfully.... now, he and i are so confused about what caused it not to run that one time..... anybody have any idea what may have caused this?
also, if anybody needs this done, come see me cause after taking the thing apart about 12 times in an hour, ive got pretty good and can get the whole intake tube and air box off in less than a minute, so come see me.... j/k
