Do a search and you'll find lots of posts from people with bogging and sluggish response from the Injen intake even without a tune. I'd get a either a true CAI or a SRI that completely shields the air filter from radiant engine bay heat like the AFE Takeda.
I know I know...I just want it to go away! atleast I can change something about the chip to try and make it better.
