Default CAI Question

Just recently installed a Roush CAI on my 09 GT and it starts and idles fine no codes or errors but when I punch it it boggs down for a split second and then takes off I was told the computer has not registered it yet and has to be driver for a bit to adjust. Is this true?

Unhook the battery for 10 minutes to reset the computer

Check to make sure your MAF sensor is in all the way or clean it carefully!

Thanks but this is a brand new car and the MAF is all the way in and clean.
Like I said it starts and runs fine but when you get on it it give a deep growl and hesitates and takes off like a rocket.
