Default Need help! CEL, VSC/TRAF OFF light!

Okay, so about a little bit over a month ago i installed an injen intake for my is300. Ive been getting some intermittent CEL with the VSC/TRAC OFF lights, I've done some things suggested by other guys such as cleaning the MAF sensor, reconnecting the solenoid and attaching it to the intake tube, and resetting the battery and ECU but it keeps coming on! can anyone help me figure out whats wrong???

did u oil up the filter on the injen intake? too much oil is not good. try cleaning the throttlebody and MAF sensor again. also make sure all connections are tight..no leaks.

check for trouble codes to make sure that the intake cause the light to come on... otherwise swap the stock intake and see if it goes away and if it does something wrong with the aftermarket intake. also check the intake tube around the maf sensor if there is a dent on it, this will also cause the cel to come on.
