Call the people you bought the parts and tuner from and complain. When my car was new, I had only a cai and excal tuner with 4.10 gears. I drove my brother 300 miles so he could buy a BMW and my car stalled about a dozen times, even at 80mph. It was running lean with a Steeda cai and a canned tune from Steeda. I went to my local Mustang specialty shop and he tweeked the tune for me. Never happened again.

I never had that problem when I installed my CAI, I would just get error codes. But, after installing the RKSport California Dream Ram Air Hood my car will actually stall (usually at highway speeds when slowing down considerably) because of the added air turbulence. I plan on getting it to my tuner to fix the problem.

If the hood is actually the reason for it, that's interesting.

It has to be since that is the only thing I have changed since the problem occured. There is no way it can be anything else since I haven't touched anything in my car power/tune-wise since July. So I guess I proved that ram-air does kind of work, j/k .
