Default CAI having problems

has this happened to any one?????? It started with an idle problem that I got straigtened out but now it feels doggish when I go full throttle. To fix the idle I cleaned the MAF and Throttle body the doggish feeling didnt start untill I made a 3 hour trip with it.

Doesnt sound like a CAI problem theres not much that can go wrong on a cai. Maybe you gots some bad plugs or a clogged injector.

Reload Tune and Reset Throttle. Dont know why but mine learns bad habits on occasion and a reload wakes it up.
Also double check all connections to make sure you dont have a intake leak.
