May have to take her to the dealer

I changed the MAF, the COILS, and the PLUGS. The car ran like new for 3 months. Now when it gets over 85 degrees, it misfires a little. I had an extra set of plugs, and that did not fix it either. It only happens when I am stopped. Goes away in N...

So I think I will take it to the dealer. Unless there are other things I can check.. All i have is the stage 11 berk intake..

Any ideas??

If I do end up taking her to the dealer, should I put back in the stock intake?? Not for warranty reasons, I just don't want them to say that the mis-firing is due to the intake....

150% chance the intake is sucking in the blistering hot air under the hood and choking the engine, since when you are stopped, there is nothing moving the air out of the engine compartment.

That's what I thought as well. But then again many ppl have the same intake without the problem she has

I think I will put back in the stock intake and see if it still happens..
