    what did you do with the air temp sensor and the air flow sensor when you installed the hi-flo CAI?

    can you post a pic of the air cleaner setup for us

    take another look at the air box... there should be a small black sensor on the side of it. Check that it is plugged in correctly.

    Also check all connections arrount the extractors to make sure he hasnt bumped any wire connections

    This is usually a sign that there is a problem with the ABS module. It happens a lot. Do a search and you will find lots of posts about it. Does the oil light come on as well?
