Ok then,
Just to confirm the baro sensor does not have a hose routed to the intake?
The MAF computers use actaul atmospheric, while sd uses intake manifold pressure.
This is often overlooked in a MAF conversion.

Other than that....
What computer do you have? there should be a catch code on the computer A9*, or other?
What are the part numbers on the MAF meter?
Is it a 55mm MAF tube?

Is the MAF aftermarket?

It is worth the time to check the quality of the grounds, especially the orange O2 sensor ground on the firewall. Same firewall location as the engine block ground.

Default added pics!


baro sensor (currently unplugged)





anyone happen to know what the relay that is that is attached to the side wall. directly accross (down) from my MAF? there is a stripped wire going into it but none of those wires get any power from when i have tested it.

fourfivefour: as you can see in the first pic, that black box, the bottom left of it looks like there should be a tube attached but there isnt. (thats the baro sensor that is currently unplugged.)

vristang: stock 55mm tube, MAF is AFH55-02

Its not your injectors because it runs ok with the BAP unplugged, if it was the injectors it would run like cr*p all the time.
