So for everyone who told me to clean the MAF sensor was right. It was not even dirty really, but I had no alcohol so used face cleaner lol and cleaned o2 sensor and its freakin crazy how much power I got back. I also pulled cold air intake all nice and tight maybe that was a prob too, but so much went at once I had no idea, but thanks. Im happy. Still cant believe how much power that gave me!

When I bought my car, the MAF filaments were BLACK. I drove the car, and it couldn't spin the tires if it's life depended on it. Would hit an absolute brick wall after 3k rpms, and was absolutely terrible. A little carb cleaner and q-tip action, and those 225 wides were spinning the rest of the day.

Thats what happened with me but when I bought it was just about 2 weeks ago it was ok on power not as it should be, but would burn a lil in 1st cleaned that sensor and it burns in 2nd. Still think it needs a little more power though
