Ok so I recently installed my takeda momentum intake on my 2012 Si and by recently to be more specific about 3 weeks ago. The first day I had it on the check engine light came on and when I tried accelerating it wouldn't so I decided to slow down and stop, turned my car off and back on and it went away everything worked fine but I did check the engine bay to see if anything looked wrong but nothing. Now 3 weeks later I went on a drive tonight, pushing my car through vtec in the gears on the freeway, CEL comes on, same thing happens, I get off the freeway and do the same procedure, everything is fine, continue on my drive through a canyon (which was very fun) then I go home and while going in a corner hot and revving again, at a lower speed this time, it comes on again!!! And same procedures done and then fixed, I made a 40 mile trip home, drove it nice and easy since I was scared. I don't know what it can be. What I didn't do when I installed the intake was disconnect the battery though I'm not sure if that could be the problem, another thing is when the CEL came on the car would shake when I tried accelerating so possibly a misfire?? Could I need new spark plugs because that's my guess, I haven't gotten around to check them but I will for sure now, my car is at about 13,000 miles and have never had anything like this happen, only other mods I have is a tsudo exhaust and a rear sway(which most likely is not the cause lol)
