ok so here is the deal... this morning i was "planning" on buy some resistors to fool the ecm into thinking i was running cold all the time, i take apart the maf and iat sensors just to get an idea of where it would go once i bought them.... then i put it all back together go to start my car and its bogging down like crazy.. it barely hits 300 rpm when idle and when i hit the gas at about 2.5 -3k rpm it sputters bad and doesnt wanna acclerate.. can anyone tell me whut they think is wrong.. or am i just gonna have to buy a whole new maf sensor since i fucked it up... thanks
