check MAFS, connection, wiring, ground....

lots of smoke when you rev? if so, probably vacuum leak ...check vacuum lines, intercooler piping/couplers.


have you tried the "search" button? this seems to be a popular problem.

MAF definetely.
pull codes from the ecu and make sure its not in limp mode.
if the red light stays on when u start the car and its running, its in limp mode

Check your coil pack ground wire, and vacuum routing. Don't use the old egr vacuum nipple for anything, cap it off. It's found underneath the TB plate.

check all your sensors. something might be coming loose with vibration.

check intercooler piping and all vac leaks.

check grounds.

check the ecu ground and ecu itself.

i watched the video and forsure its a sensor i can tell u that. my guess is your mafs, because even though u checked the wires, doesnt mean the actuall sensor its self isnt broken.
this happined to my mafs and wen i unplugged it i wouldnt rev past 3k.
try this, while the car is running, unplug ur mafs and see if theres much of a difference.

pull codes off ECU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Easiest thing you could have done yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And if it is a sensor problem, the easiest way to find out is to unplug them one by one.

unscrew the maf from the intake and make sure the sensors that are hit by air aren't covered in dirt.

make sure your 02 sensor isn't fouled out as well.

check your coil pack and maf wiring to make sure it's not grounding on the chassis anywhere.
