not sure about veedubs but check to make sure no vaccuum (sp) hoses came disconnected when you did that... and did you have stock intake before? maybe reset your ecu if its self programming....

something like this happened on my jetta. check your mass air sensor (right after the filter), make sure it's clean.

since you removed your intake, i'd check for any loose vac hoses or connections. i remember when i put the intake on my car back on after replacing the head and i forgot to tighten one of my intercooler clamps. car wouldn't boost for shit and scared the piss outta me.
