Review on 57 1550 FIPK Performance Intake System by Randy Perry

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Caused a cold start problem. Had to remove product and come back with factory airbox

It's been on my car for a while. I can say that I wanted this product to work. There really is a noticeable increase in power with much better throttle response and turns my quiet lil 4 cylinder into a race car sounding beast. I'll tell you all my cars come with K&N Performance products, but this one just doesn't fit. For some reason, after this setup was fully installed, my car started a hard cold start. It would immediately stop at the 1st start. After a quick reboot it worked fine. At first I thought maybe I have a bad air temp sensor that needs to be removed and reinstalled to use this kit. So I changed it to no avail. When I removed this kit and returned to my factory airbox, the car started immediately and runs well with no hiccups. Again, I've had this company's products in my other vehicles with no problems, they just didn't work well with a 2009 PT Cruiser. :(
