i dont want to take it back to the dyno and complain about their tune job when they fix it with a sensor.

But i'm almost convinced it has to be something in the tune.
Fix the sensor and if that doesnt fix it take it back and make him fix it. I know he cant be that stupid that he cant figure out what he did to cause what is happening. I mean maybe he cant tune that great but we are talking about something being seriously whacked.

i've posted this before, after my cam install my car ran in limp mode now i dont remember any misfires but check the sensor on the back of the intake. theres a teeny tiny wire that breaks easy running to the computer that cost me $100 to diagnose & fix.

Thanks for keeping us in mind and I apologize that we aren't able to get you in any sooner than that - this year has been nuts for us.

Best of luck, hopefully we can help you more in the future.

I'm 99% sure the MAP sensor is good, and I may take it to them and they say the map sensor is bad and charge me 100 bucks for labor and then i'll have to spend 80 bucks on the MAP anyway but at least it would be fixed. If it turns out being something else the 80 that I'd spend on the MAP just guessing is thrown away. I've already done that with the MAF and TPS. But I agree with you man something is weird with it. I just want it to be fixed and I'm tired of messing with it.

when I removed the intake (before I knew I didn't have to) I pulled the wires out of the MAP sensor plug. But I bought a brand new plug and soldered the wires together so I don't think that its that but I will definitely check and make sure all the wires are good. The MAP is reading 15"Hg at idle so I'm thinking its good. but it never hurts to check.

Did yours throw a code for the wire being broken?

UPDATE:

The "chugging" right after start-up when it goes into closed loop has stopped. the only thing I've changed recently was swapping around 02 sensors. I'm so glad that it doesn't do this anymore, its such a heartbreak when your car has no power! But it still stumbles pretty bad so I'm still going to have it looked at. Its just weird because when I checked the 02 sensors they were reading 1.105v KOEO and right after I started it, all the way until it went into closed loop and then after blipping the throttle a couple times they would start switching normally.

guess I'll just be happy that its not doing it anymore.
