I got some great answers on a similar forum and I thought I'd ask here as well....

I bought an accufab throttle body and a JLT cai and after installing them my car ran like crap... lean, missing, sputtering...

So before I return these parts is there anyone with a sn95 that uses these bolt ons with success and is happy with them? And how in the world did you get it to run correctly?

Thank you

Did you try just installing one thing at a time to see which is the problem?
