When I try using it on my auto Z it never gets past the screen that stats Make Gear Selection. I am wondering if this feature even works on an auto because I am in the correct gear and hover at 2000rpm ready for this thing to say accelarate.

I have gotten the 0-60 to work just no the dyno. I want to start doing some performance logging with this thing and report back any power gain/loss with running the Takeda SRI over the Stock Air Box. I feel this will be better then a standing still dyno like (Dyno Jet) because the Short Ram Intakes work as the air starts to enter the engine ie the car needs to be moving to show and accurate reading (Real World Testing). These SRI will never show power in a shop with the hood closed even with a fan blowing.

I have monitored my Takeda Intake temps and average 15-20 over ambient cruising and 8-12 over ambient at WOT, but in traffic I have seen intake temps go past 150F. So I swapped back to the stock box (stock filter) and measure 5-12 over ambient crusing and 5-8 at WOT, sitting in traffic it takes much longer to get high intake temps. So the stock box is definitely bringing in cooler air but.... I still think the car pulled harder with the Takeda SRI especially at high RPM. And this may be the AAM tune doing its job but the AFR is the same on the Takeda and Stock Air Intake. 14.5 idle and around 12.5 WOT.
I havent tried it as Red370 said it was real quirky in that it can give really off numbers depending on what gear you are in and how you are driving it.

When you went back to stock boxes, did you use the stock filters and they might have been dirty. Try it with the K&N filters as they flow better than stock. Yea thats about my AFRs too, right on from what I have been told.
