Default 08' z06 K&N CAI error code, TCS lights and engine light issue

So I installed a K&N CAI filter for my 08' c6 z06 and things were going good for a couple of days after install. Then one night I took her out and opened her up and things were fine. I woke up the next morning and took her to the gym and that's when I got an engine light and TCS light goes on. I go to Auto Zone and pull code. It had something to do with my car running rich/lean (forgot which). So I decided to swap back to my stock air filter and all issues goes away. Anyone have this issue?

I have heard of this issue happening on LS7s with aftermarket intakes, especially the KN. Nothing abnormal. Stick with the stock one or get a better intake such as a Halltech.

Very common with all aftermarket air breathers, some more then others. You can get the same codes from having air leakage in your stock shroud, with the stock air breather as the MAF is that sensitive to air turbulence crossing it.
