intake and loss of hp

i recently put a ractive intake on and it gave a little kick, but i have noticed that the acceleration is slowly dicipating to something more similar to stock. I have checked all connections and its position, but everything appears to be in order. Has anyone experienced this? Maybe i'm dreaming and I have just become accustomed to its accel now.

if you've checked everything, and there's no vacuum leaks... then you're probably just getting used to having it in. maybe your car needs a tuneup or something.. oil change, check the plugs and wires...

Did you try resetting the ECU?

Also, I think that your butt dyno may be adjusting to having the new intake on.

But....if you wanna get rid of it, let me know
