Installed 1/2 short ram again....soem Qs

Sup guys, i've had the ebay short ram and i've gone through bouts with it, sometimes i hate it and sometimes i love it. Today i just installed the 2nd half of it, after the MAF and moved the coolant reservoir, but after driving it around for a bit i remembered why i took it off. The car idles really low and lumpy now, and i was wondering if you guys have any input as to why it might be doing that. All the hoses are attached properly and i did reset the ecu.
Thanks,
Tre

sounds like a vaccuum leak to me. I would check the couplers to make sure there are no leaks and make sure the IAT sensor hole on the intake is plugged up with the IAT!

I haven't had problems with mine...I second Rod's suggestions, check for leaks!
