    yeah, maybe. the car also has a custom intake. could any of the hoses that were connected to the stock airbox make any difference now that they arent connected?

    Yeah, I'd recommend carb spray, and also, when you crank it, hold the throttle down to the floor to make sure fuel is being sprayed into the IM. Just be careful to not floor it if it does crank up lol, you dont want to redline it.
