Nope.

No need, Evolve tune takes care of it properly and I pass plug in emissions fine(and I would imagine sniffer tests).
does evolve force readiness on the secondary o2 to accomplish this? if so then anyone from Jersey may need to request a normal secondary o2 parameter and run a bung ... NJ's most recent change plugs into the car checks for codes then clears the ECU ... if any parameters come back as ready after a clear they know the ECU has been tampered with and dig deeper/fail the car

No, they reduce the threshold for the sensor to trip. I suspect you would still be fine but I don't know the ins and outs of Jersey law.

It really isn't a question of money, just time.

I think Obioban and I are going to do a dyno day together soon, so I would say within the next few months.

I see no reason why not. I certainly would do the DISA manifold first, but after that, this is the next biggest power gain.

Did anyone get the "USB device voltage too low" error from the evolve software/flash tool?

So far:
-Labtop battery is charging
-Car is to on position
-Reinstalled software twice
-Battery is on a tender (even after highway driving all day)
-LEDs are flashing connected to the OBD port
-Drivers are installed
-Not connected through USB hub

This is no bueno

Sounds like your USB port doesn't have enough power to drive the cable. Unplug any other devices connected to the computer and/or try a different USB port and/or use a powered hub.

Yup. If your computer has any USB 3.0 ports, try those as they tend to be higher power.

I'd try another computer. If the issue persists, faulty cable.

If it goes away, something is amiss with your computer.

Autocad has nothing to do with low power USB ports. That's a cost saving calculation on the part of Lenovo.

I would also go into controlpanels/hardware/properties/usb and see if power saving is turned on.

Power saving doesn't apply when plugged into a ac power source.

Doesn't work with Asus or Toshiba laptop either.

Sounds like you might just have a bad cable.

Sounds like they are going to send out a new cable. I hope that fixes the issue.

Thanks for the ideas of different things to try guys.

AFE also claims 10-15 for their 128i intake.

I think you are better off with the Mapleridge option than that.

And to add to that, super sprint usually underestimates their own gains and other companies overestimate.
