I hydrolocked my engine w/ a CAI. Now it's been replaced with a JDM b16a2 by a guy my friend referred. When I got the car back the CAI filter was used as the intake, the cruise contol doesnt work anymore(the light comes on when I press the button though), the engine idles higher than before, & the check engine light always comes on. Also I see a nipple for the intake but I dont see the other hose thing that also sticks onto the intake from the engine. I have a AEM short ram on its way so i think i need the missing hose. Also I asked for a street or stage 1 clutch & he said he put an ACT stage 1 in & told me to talk it easy on the clutch for a bit to break it in but I dont feel much a a differance in shifting. I would like to get things back to normal so any input would be greatly appreciated. I am also lookin into replacing my dead alpine car alarm system still installed but not working with something pretty good, preferrably w/ good range. Thanks,

check the cruise vac lines and power to the unit.

the hose goes from the intake nimple to the valve cover nimple. a hose can be picked up for $2 at your local parts store.
Also I asked for a street or stage 1 clutch & he said he put an ACT stage 1 in & told me to talk it easy on the clutch for a bit to break it in but I dont feel much a a differance in shifting. I would like to get things back to normal so any input would be greatly appreciated.
your not going to feel much different by going with oem or close to oem spec clutches. break in period is 500 miles.
