u might have a vacuum leak somewhere, check and see if any of hte hoses are damaged, if not check the filter itself and see if it is all seated properly, otherwise im not sure what else it could be, good luck!

well i see i am missing a screw on the lower part of the intake but could one screw make that much difference?

I had that problem once w/ my Injen. See, when I installed mine, I didn't realize that one of the hose sections was upside down, so the "INJEN" didn't read right. So a couple days after the install I noticed this, and decided to take it apart to fix that hose section. I put it back together and that's when I had the problem like you have. the tach would drop really low and then pop back up to 1000 or so, and sometimes it would die if I didn't blip the throttle.
So I looked at the intake and saw that one of the hose sections wasn't clamped tight all the way around. So I took the clamps off of that hose and retightened them. Problem solved.
