Default I have...

with regards to the engine revs. seems like the engine is going to die on me, but the shakes are minor. I thought it was from my exhuast or something, hasnt happened in a while.

never heard of that. Why would changing your intake do anything. Esp. at a light?

Default Time to ty that new Decaffeinated blend. Or up your meds.

Sounds like the dreaded coil-pack?? At least, it sounds ignition related.

I think the airbox is coincidental, unless you detatched a lead (or something on that order) while installing the intake. Check your connections.

Worst case - now that it's back to the stock airbox, a trip to the stealership will be a option.
"Uhhhhhh, WHAT intake?"

Default I had the shakes a couple of weeks before a fuel pump failure...not saying they're related but

my "idle shakes" are gone with the new pump and filter.

I have this too. I'm thinking it could use new plugs. Dealer found nothing wrong.
