Default car dosent run right...

Ok, when im driving my car and i put it into any gear and get the rpms up to about 3500 or higher and when i stomp on the gas the car will shut off or bog for about 3 secs and then out of no where it kicks back in and takes off. I have no idea what it could be. This all started after i took my accufab throttle body out and put back in my stock TB. I have a new stock MAF, new IAC. I dont kno what could be going on. If anyone has any idea of what is going, on the help would be most appreciated.

Bad wires can arc under load causing all kinds of cross firing and hesitation. Can't hurt to change your ignition wires. I always had very good luck with Ford Racing wires.
