      Rough Idle after Ram cold air intake install

      I just installed a Ebay short ram cold air intake on my 2008 chevy aveo and now it idles pretty rough and cannot get the car to adjust the air (at least this is what I believe), the engine light did come on but checked the Air sensor and then it went off, but still idles at low rpm and usually flucuates the rpm at idle. Is there a way to update the ecu other than disconnecting the battery as this has been tryed twice already. Id like to keep it but do I need to get a new tune now or what

      Thanks for the help!

      Did you properly seal everything up? even when you transferred the sensors?

      yes everything is definetly sealed tight used silicone to be sure the sensor was air tight

      I dont know if the computer cant handle this and realize the new air mixer or what, tryed reseting the ecu, it works fine when very first start up but once you rev it then it gets really rough sometimes stalls
