    Clean the MAF with MAF cleaner. Your MAF could be dirty but not trip any codes. Also, if you have no cats, you might need a tune as the computer will go whacky with the after-cat O2s trying to read the exhaust gases that are flowing faster than they did when the cats were initially in the car. Let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

    the car was already cammed and had pacesetter longtubes on it when i got it the dealership had to put cats on it to pass emissions here when i had the exhaust changed last week we removed the cats but put bungs in and reinserted the back 02 sensors and still no code i cleaned the maf today before work but didnt have time to drive it it has a slight stutter if you give it gas from idle but clears up is it just in automatic cars it does this or you think a tune can fix it thanks for the help!

    I drove one that did it because of a couple bad plugs but having a good shop that also does tuning could probably tell you what it is. I know when my car was running a little off my friend plugged in his HP tuner and found some fuel setting weren't right and after a quick adjustment and ride the car was faster and smoother than it was before. No issues since those minor adjustments. Was just a crappy dyno tune the shop before did and easily fixed.
