Who installed it for you?  Can't you call them?

It sounds like some of your problems could be linked to the clutch hydrualic system.  The pedal would be put to the floor by a possible hydraulic leak.  Go check the hydrualic lines, clutch master cylinder, and slave cylinder for any leaks.  Also check the reservoir to make sure it has fluid still in it.  If all that checks out then your next best bet would be the free play adjustment and pedal height adjustment.  

Keep us posted

Hey, the SAME thing happened to me with my KA just the other day. I tried shifting to second and it wouldn't go, then not into any. SO had to pull over and force it in.Turns out the slave and master cylinder's are leaking and I had to replace them. But on top of that, my clutch started going bad at the very same time. And my starter started to go back the next time I tried turning the car on and my EGR is going bad. ALL at the same time.

Really shitty luck...

I don't know about the MAF thing, I think it's more like a problem at the ECU, my car does the same if I don't have my speedo hooked up(don't ask).  Whenever I would try to get it up past 4-5K at WOT, it wouldn't do anything but cut fuel, the ECU was just confused, it could be the harness not done correctly and sending bad or faulty info back to the ECU.
