Odd. ..
I returned my intake to stock setup, reset the computer and wait until I get the SHO up to par before I use the 80mm MAF again.

Nothing changed, although I do few bit slower, still stalls, still fighting to rev. So I ran codes again, just for ***** and giggles. ..well what do you know! I find a code!
91 (R, M) System running lean
But that's only in the running test, it's not stored in memory. Before I was getting 11s all across the board, not it's 11, 11, and 91. Could it just be bad O2 sensors? Could they really be the culprit for all my problems??

only few things can cause your engine to run lean.

1. bad maf sensor
2. bad throtle position sensor
3. bad coolant temperature sensor or stuck thermostat

these are the only ones I can think of

Hey denny, I was thinking about this earlier, have you tried removing both of the accessory belts and running your car? I was thinking maybe you have static drag somewhere? Just a thought I had while putting mine back together (AGAIN!) squint

Thats what I mean. Dont drive it, just to see if it revs freely, and if there is something really slowing it down.
