Default Car does not feel the same...

Guys my car with 2000 miles with a S&B intake and 93 Brenspeed tune just does not feel the same that when in installed both about 1500mi ago. I have re installed the tune a few times also. The car felt like an animal the first few wks and would chirp the tires between shifts. I have an auto. Anyone else experience this or have any ideas why this has happened?

Reset the adaptive learning by lifting one of the battery leads for about 15-20 minutes. You do not need to reload the tune.

Also make sure your air intake is clean, when was the last time you cleaned and reoiled the filter?

I think it's like every 5 or 15 thousand miles. Take it off shoot water from the inside out, like put the hose inside the filter to shoot stuff out not in the filter. Then dry and oil.

However it could be the adaptive learning as well.
