Q: airaid cold intake installed

asked by on November 28, 2016

since I put the airaid cold intake system in my car, it seems to bogg down a bit, throttle response is less instead of more and the exhaust sounds lower and junkier, almost like it dropped a cylinder when I punch it. Any reason for this?

My car has 25000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
