        It sounds like your IAT is the problem. You need to make sure that it is fit properly, and turned the right direction for good measure. In order to get mine to fit well, I had to shave the hole in the Whisper Lid to a slightly greater diameter. While you're at it, make sure you have the rubber boot fully on the throttle body and the metal band tightened securely.

                hockeyman, when you get it set up could you take a pic or 2 of the setup. I have seen how people run the lids on the 99+ but our 98's have that lovely bend in the throttlebody. I would really like to see how everything looks on a 98. If you can't do digital pics shoot me an e-mail cause I have access to a scanner.

                thnx

                      The clip faces UP.

                      From Install University :

                      <blockquote>quote:</font><hr> Reminder: Make sure you have the keys out of the ignition. Why? When you remove the sensors from the air box lid assembly you do not want to start the car. You will set the Service Engine Soon (SES) light. If you do start the car without placing the sensors back in you can easily reset the SES light by following these steps:

                      1. Turn key to the "on" position but don't start car
                      2. Pull the PCM BAT and PCM IGN fuses in engine compartment
                      3. Wait approximately 5 minutes
                      4. Turn ignition off
                      5. Replace fuses
                      6. Start the car and then make sure the light has gone off <hr></blockquote>
