So about 9 months ago i got my first legacy from my grandfather. I drove it for a while and i didnt know much about cars andmods, but then my buddy told me i should put an intake opn it ot make it look good. I went along and he helped me out put it on. It was a plastic one and was pretty cheep.
This is the first intake.

As time went by i decided i wanted to try this thing called a hydrogen booster which is suppoesd to increase your gas milage. I made a cell from scratch, but the sealdidnt work so it leaked and i am still working on it. But i tried to mount it in my car and decided i need to move my intake. So i went out bought all ned parts and went over to my budies for some help and we put a new one on.

As you can see the intake was put on but i drove it for about 30 miles and my engine check light came on and i did not know why. so i looked at the intake and took it to schucks to check the coads and came up with the problem that the vacume hose was leeking. Turns out i put the vacume hose on the wrong side of the MAF and put the MAF in backwards too. The pictures show it better but it was a stupid mistake.
I hope noone makes this stupid mistake and if anyone has a problem like this they can know hwtas wrong and what to do. I am still working on getting the hydrogen booster in but it will take some time to mount it. Let me know if anyone has one and how they mounted it.
