All I can tell you without physically seeing your entire installation would be to VERY THOROUGHLY check EVERY SINGLE connection you made. Make sure that each MAFci wire is spliced into the proper wire in the ECU harness, and that it is making a good connection... There are several wires in the harness that are [nearly] the same color, so you must be VERY careful to count properly and get the right one (don't just say "oh, a red wire, this must be it!"). Also go back and make sure that your sensor is clean, and secured properly onto the SRI pipe, and that the proper vacuum tubes are securely connected to the pipe, and that they are not pinched in any places.

If your check engine light came on BEFORE you connected the customizer, you may need to have it reset... If it came on after you installed the customizer, you need to check and double check everything...

yup, that sounds right, hopefully you were able to fix everything. I started my car before I installed the customizer just for a quick second, and the engine definitely was quickly becoming flooded. Once the customizer was on there were no problems though.

Sounds like a lot of work for an intake. What are the benefits of this one over the injen?

^ what he said and guaranteed when installed correctly to not give a CEL. This is a complete "air intake system" as opposed to a simple air intake.
