Hey all! i recently got into a small accident where a 18-wheeler cut me off on the turnpike resulting in me slamming into his trailer. i messed up most of the front end including my passwordjdm carbon intake and cooling plate. since i got the car bak and it is my daily driver ive been crusing around with out an air box or my airbox sensor connected. my question is: how bad is it what im doing? should i expect any kind of serious consequensces? is there anything i should do when i do get my new intake(reset the ecu, pull a fuse?). i not not ragging on the car simply driving it to work and bak each day. i really dont have a choice since i dont have a stock airbox laying around. i have another one on the way but i have no choice but to drive the car till then. thanx in advance!

Do u have a CEL?

i have the check engine light on, but it's not throwing ne codes out. the car runs fine except for a little bit of bogging down low in the rpm's

Ur not gonna ruin anything, just might get bad gas milage.

i hope so. i'll take bad gas mileage for a week or so over messing up my motor anyday.when i do get the new intake do i have to do anything to the ecu like resetting it?

don't drive through a dust cloud.

do you at least have a filter on your throttle body?

i have a full stock intake assembly from an AP1. dunno if it'll fit your AP2 but PM me if interested.

driving with no air filter is asking for trouble

yeah i kno. i have no intake on the trottle body right now. im driving extremly careful, slow, and as least as possible. my main concern besides have the motor swallow a large forgein object is messing something up. i have the intake on the way alrdy but im tryin to minimize the amount of possible damage that could b done to the motor driving like this.
