I checked all the pipes and tightened all the clamps. My engine also has a fast ticking sound coming from the engine. I don't remember it sounding like that when I first bought it last month. It is still under warranty and I highly doubt within a few weeks that it would be spark plugs. It definitely seems like the Stillen is at fault. I'm debating taking it off bc my car is definitely slower >3K RPMs.

Your car will hesitate if you have a check engine light on. Clean your MAFs carefully and see if it helps. DO NOT TOUCH THE ENDS OF THE SENSORS! The ticking was probably there already but more noticeable since the engine is sitting at a higher RPM. Its pretty normal for our cars. There are probably hundreds of people on this forum with the Stillens sincce it has been proven time and time again to make the most power with no issues. Its something that can be resolved with keeping the intakes. You just need to pinpoint what it is.
