Rep Power: 0 P0171
Should my exhaust be doing this and could it be the reason I'm getting a fuel too lean code, it's also doing the same thing from the triangle shaped gasket in my exhaust and what do I do to this hose I know it's not supposed to be open ended like that so I'd really like to know what I need to buy to fix it, the intake kit never came with a hose to fit that

Re: P0171
Pic1 exhaust has a small puddle under it? No biggie IMO. Water is normal, but the joint is leaking a bit.
Not the cause of your code.
I can't tell what the other pic is other than the breather vent. Too close. Where does it go? Is it still connected to anything other then the water lines?

Rep Power: 0 I've attached some more pictures, hopefully those will help, I have no idea what the hose is running to or what it does I'm just trying to troubleshoot this engine light as I currently have a 1000 mile trip to make. I'm going to go tommorow and look at the exhaust some more, it is leaking badly I can feel it and hear a hissing noise coming from the unde the car,

P0171 ----Remove MAF sensor from the breather tube
Get the flashlight and look for dirt/debris/bug stuck in the MAF sensor.
On a stock system this seems to happen when one uses a cheapo air filter that doesn't fit quite right or someone mutilates the rubber gasket around the filter.
With CAI it's anyones guess. Also check if the filter is the oily type that it isn't saturated and contaminated the MAF sensor.

Rep Power: 0 Sorry about that and it is an CAI I took the whole thing apart and refitted it perfectly making sure I left no room for leaks, but about the oily type air filter, wtf do you mean lol I didn't know there was such a thing, the filter is a little dirty, but I removed the MAF this morning and it looked fine, I took an air hose and blew some air there it just to make sure there was nothing in it. But like I said the filter is hella dirty and there are no splash guards installed because the intake kept making me scrub them, could a dirty *** filter be the issue?

Re: P0171
Got freeze data to go with the P0171 code?
Still no pics seen
Is the vent port on the valve cover open-- or not connected to the intake pipe?
Got the stock air filter box? Reinstall it, erase codes, then see if the code returns?
Did you get a tank full of E85?
Test fuel pressure?
K&N has a red oil for their washable filters.
