I re-installed the hotshot today after getting it smogged and I'm having problems. When I hit 2500rpm, I get a fuel cut out and it sputters like non other. Also, the car smells like it has a test pipe. Everything was in place, no leaks from what I can see, all hoses attatched, MAF and sensor are in place. I even put back on the stock airbox after trying the CAI, and it STILL acts up on me. Perhaps the problem is not intake-related. Have any of you guys had this trouble? I want to try and avoid Nissan dealership.

Thanks

i forgot too plug the throttle body sensor back in and
it cut out when i would try to rev it, i don't know just

Sounds like you MAF died. Your car is in limp mode. Do you know of anyone with a MAF that you can try? Make sure none of the wires came out of the connector.
