Check engine light

I recently ins stalled a vararam intake (about 1500 miles ago) and I'm experiencing some weird symptoms. First it said check coolant level, and it was about 50% in there. Then I went on a trip and when I would come to a stop, the car would idle at 1200 before settling down to normal. I also noticed that when I take my foot off the gas it would pause for a second and then slightly buck forward.

Only thing I can think of that might be related to that Vararam would be the Mass Air Sensor. Not sure if that starts acting up if it would trigger symptoms like that though.

I hope so, maybe it's two problems? I also got the throttle body spacer so maybe it came loose or something? Idk

If you don't get more responses to this post you might repost with a heading "Installed Vararam - Help!". "Check Engine Light" might not attract much attention, especially from those who have intalled CAIs. Just trying to help.
