I got a HKS Hi Power Flow mushroom filter from Sumo power and made are own piping to relocate the filter to the bottom left hand corner of the engine bay (like the apexi kit). But there is no airflow meter attached. So the plug is unattached.

My two questions are-

1) Will having this plug not connected effect performance or any other factors? (Car seems to be running alrite and and accelertaing no problem with no flat spots).

2) The "malfunction" light has appeared on the dash because of this. Will resetting the ECU get rid of this warning light ?? (fuse's or battey??)

Thanks

Firstly get rid of that filter, their known for disintergrating and letting dangerous sized particles through.

Secondly its not an air flow meter its an air temp meter. just drill a hole in the side of the piping and fit the it into that, just extend the wiring if needed.

Resetting the ECU may clear it or you may need an OBDII reader to do it.

The light will go off after awhile anyway when it gets use to the new air flow thats what I found ;) but you should connect to something really
