I bought the k&n to run without a tune, but it didn't make enough power for me.

Did you re-teach the idle after you reconnected the battery during installation?

It's a good idea to disconnect the negative battery cable when changing intakes and messing with the mas.

When they dyno my car at high rpms with thr K&N the engine was real rich 16.5 without the tune.

Now that's playing with fire. Be careful or you might go kaboom.
