Need help CAI, Throttle body install loss of power?

[randy koehler]

So in need of opinions, and advice. I installed a 87mm throttle body and a S&B Cold air intake today.

Everything before install was fine had the seat of the pants feel, pulled really hard. After install it is now very sluggish pulls, but no where near where it was.

Double checked install everything everything is solid, had the battery disconnected during.

Only other mods truck has are shortie headers carven competitor, pedal commander. It is a 2013 ram 1500 sport 5.7L hemi.

Any advice? Or help?

Please and Thank you

Try the relearn procedure for the TB that @Harley Harrold explains here: https://www.ramforum.com/threads/throttle-body-cleaning.122315/page-3

I have pulled tb probably 4 times now, 1st to check/clean oem, 2nd to swap to fastman, 3rd to put oem back on for dealer visit(long story) and 4th to put fastman back on.
Did the relearn EVERY TIME and never an issue

Is your truck tuned? Being a 2013 you have an unlocked pcm already. You can buy a i3. Or i2 used. They can be pretty cheap. Possible the current tune isn't liking that much air now.

Orrrrrrr could clean MAF sensor and see?

Did you use any silicone sealant on anything that might send the map sensor crazy
