i just bought the fswerks cai and wanted to know if anybody has had problems with them i have an 09 focus. also well it bog out from take off like will i have to tune it cuz i had the K&N cai and it was doing the bogging out and then found out i need to tune the car it was annoying but i was told i would not have that problem with the fswerks cai so is that true? i'am really hope so. any info would be cool

No tune is needed, however, a tune will help achieve your mods full potential. Your car should run just fine/better now. Haven't heard any complaints about a bogging problem. You should be really pleased with the quality product you just purchased.

The Cool-Flo does not require an ECU program at all. If your car is bogging, there is an issue with the car or the installation.

Do you have any fellow jetters who live in your region? Maybe someone can have a look if you aren't able to figure out what it up.

one more question i have an 09 and it has those two vac hoses on there i'am i going to have to drill in to the fswerks cai for the pzev vac hose i think thats what its called. like i did for the K&N that was annoying and hard to find a 5/8 drill bit i really hope i dont have to do that again

everything is complete on the FSwerks intake and from what i have seen on the 08+ models there is no drilling required. that may have been where you ran into a problem with the other intake becuase if there was any air leaking at the point you would have a vac leak and could cause the issues you described. i had a k&n on my 07 and never had an issue save for a lean code randomly one day
