air temp sensor or coolant sensor problems can cause that too if the eec thinks the car is warmed up......get to advance and let them pull the codes for you

I drove his car back when he bought it and another thing that is a mayjor problem is its pretty slow, I mean slower then it should be, its also got 3:73s and it didnt really take off, then once I jumped in my cobra it felt like a viper compared to that thing, maybe fuel problems? of his MAF is bad? what could be causing this??

well im no expert but I'd say your intake setup is way too big for the engine...maybe step down to a 65mm TB eventually for more power. I had a bad maf but it still ran fine, just was slow as ***** lol

you say high flow injectors. so what are they. 24#??? and i dont see anything for maf there. if you have 24# injectors did the previous own get a Mass air flow sensor calibrated for the size injectors you have. im not saying this is your problem cause you may even have the 19lb inj. just curious???
