Installed the EVOM intake on my 2000 Boxster S Sunday afternoon, and it sounds great. But driving home this afternoon the CEL came on, and the codes were P1128 and P1130 for Oxygen sensing adaptation, idle range, bank 1, and Oxygen sensing adaptation, idle range, bank 2.
I don't understand what could be wrong. The intake comes with a guarentee of no CEL, and I made sure that I reconnected everything properly, so what's going on?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

not sure what you mean "is the intake on the body"? it's not touching the body.
the maf only fit one way on the pipe, so I'm pretty sure it's correct. and yes, everything is tight.

Sounds like you need to pull your MAF and clean it. I did the same thing and thought DAMN EVO intake is causing the MAF failure. When i pulled out the maf and looked at it (cause I didn't really when installing the EVO intake) turns out it is so dirty that I wonder how it even worked in the first place.

Tierce, you didn't oil the filter did you?
The EVO filter is pre-oiled. When I installed mine, I wasn't sure if the filter needed oiling or not, and the paperwork didn't really say one way or the other, so I emailed EVO. They told me absolutely NOT to oil it, it could foul the MAF sensor.

No, I didn't oil the filter. And the mass air flow isn't that old. I found some insulation touching the filter on one side, so I'll cut that out and see if it changed anything.

So yeah, you can see the maf is dirty. None of the cars have other problems.
