CEL with Takeda intakes

[25Black3.3t]

I have a 2025 G70. I installed a Takeda cold air intake which triggered the CEL. It's installed properly with no leaks and all hoses/clamps are tight. Anybody else seen this?

I figured it out on my own.

What was it?

What was it?

Boost leak down by the turbos. I had to really tighten the clamps down there.

Did the CEL come back? We have been doing a lot of testing and can't seem to get the CEL to turn off on 25+ G70s. Have tried different intakes, fittings, bends, etc. Only thing that seems to work are stock inlets with BMS intakes.

Yes it did come back. I opened up a trouble ticket with AEL and they sent me 2 revised drivers side intake tubes in the mail. I put the first one on and the light never returned. Even under heavy/extreme boost the light hasn't returned. It was similar to the intake tube that came with the original kit, but had 2 brass fittings instead of 1. One brass fitting in the middle port and a second brass fitting in the bottom port. The other intake wasn't used, so i'm not sure if it works or not. It completely moved the bottom port down to the bottom of the intake tube. Just open up a ticket with AEL and they will get you taken care of.

I figured out why its coming on. Under heavy boost you are fine. so I think the answer would be to increase vacuum on the ccv side (driver side) for scenarios where it is low throttle and thus low boost since previously it is used to much more vacuum in that inlet during those scenarios with a more restrictive filter.

I built a few adapters to put inside the intake (same thing ford guys do) but have had no luck.

Yea the AEL guys got it figured out. They have 2 revised drivers side intakes and I know one works for certain. They got the parts to me within a week.

 

[Cashby]

you have any pictures of what they did?

I'll take some tomorrow. I'm not near my car today.
