    Disconnect the negative battery Terminal let it stand for an hour and reconnect. This will engage your ECU to restart and initialize. Then it will tell you to drive safely system initializing. Everything's then back to normal.

    There is no increase in power trust me, this mod is more about throttle response. Which does make the car feel more peppy. if u want more power buy KTuner for your car. Best purchase i've made for my car other than the down pipe...

      @@joshuasmith5933 you should try doing your research next time. K&N supposedly promises only a three horsepower increase on their website. I should know this because I have this exact filter, and also with a full exhaust. Also if you really want that 3 measly horsepower you need to get your car tuned. That's why I recommended K-tuner because it costes almost the same amount and you get a great increase of power 25hp+ depending on sea level.

    The lights came on because u need a tune. Ur car basically i know it sounds crazy, but it wants to go back to stock. So it will adjust other things, to make it back to the more original Civic. Since u put a intake, ur cars freaking out and is tweaking other things to balance it out. If that makes sense. With a tune, u take that off the ECU, and u tell the ECU that u have an intake, and it will take the limits off the car, such as trying to balance itself out.
