Default Indicative of a plug issue although it could be MAF or cps or POS related. How old are the plugs

and what gap?

Default Not really...

Sounds more like misfires to me. Bad gas, maybe old plugs, time for a new car???.

Default i think my maf was on its way out already :P

now that airbox breathes sooo much better...its possible it toasted the maf.
