Ok guys i gotta question about installing a aem cold air on a 1994 SI.
Ive got it all in but i have two lines left over the first is coming off the butterfly valve to the ?intake runner? to the throttle body when i plug it with my finger it makes the car idle lower when i left off it idles higher than it used to. The second i think i have it right but i want to confirm is the line coming off a selonoid on the front of the throttle body off to the stock intake on my cold air theres a hole right next to the throttle body and i have the grommet and that connector they give you. I feel kinda dumb cuz installing a intake is supposed to be a snap. Ive drove it like it is maybe i shouldent have but its not throwing a check engine and it runs fine intake sounds great thanks for any help.

There should be two outlets on your new intake pipe near the throttle body end, just like the stock pipe. The two rubber pipes that originally connected there must now be attached to your new pipe.
