    a] That was a complete waste of money that will do nothing measurable for the performance of your car. A cold air intake is a gimmick that only makes sense on a track under racing conditions. It's useless for street driving.

    .

    b] Apparently you don't know what the "red bolt light" means. A clever lad would either Google it, or look it up in the owners manual.  Fail.

    .

    c] The lightning bolt on the dash means that there is a problem with the electronic throttle control system in your vehicle. You probably disturbed that system when your immature ego led you to install the unnecessary CAI.  Good luck.

    Did you install the MAF sensor?  The PCV breather hose?  It is normal for the lights to come on when the car stalls or when the key is ON and the engine is OFF.  Put the stock intake back and see what happens.
