    Try swapping it out with a stock unit, Either your old one or if you have a buddy with a stocker and see what happens... You may be amazed.

    Agree. Throw the SLP MAF away and get a stock or stock replacement MAF back on the car. Our car came with a modded MAF and a stumble that drove me nuts until I did the research. Other possibilities could be defective O2 sender(s), a post MAF air leak that is drawing unmetered air into the engine, or a vacuum leak that would have the same effect.

    Do you have access to a scanner to see the live sensor data?
