Well, thinking that my problems were over - the car died again on me - just got back having the car towed home.

1. The car starts and idles for a sec but ends up dieing - it can actually idle ok sometimes and when I try and drive it it dies. Rpms just drop.

2. The car dies if I unplug the MAF and it won't start with the MAF unplugged.

3. No error codes.

4. The car was driving ok - it would bog at about 4000 rpm in all gears. For some reason my gauges weren't working - I had them powered through the radio plug ( radio removed - just to test out the gauges) and I hit a hard bump on the test drive - car died and gauges work?????

I'd really appreciate some help - this car is giving me a tumor.

Sounds like boost leakage to me,the wiring thing on the other hand sounds like a totally different problem and I am clueless.
