Well I just put my performer intake on the car and now she wont stay running. It idles fine for 2 or 3 seconds then just stalls. I didnt have any time to really check it out but a friend of mine said there is tons of air in the lines so that could be it. For some reason I dont think I have a schrader valve to actually "bleed" the system, how would I go about taking the air out of the lines. Or any other suggestions?

vacuum leak, happened to me. Check around the throttle-body, there are two small lines (red/green i think) anyways one of them wasn't hooked up for me and it just wreaked havoc on my idle and it pissed me off something fierce.
