Default Major Bogging Issues..I NEED HELP

Guys my car is acting really weird. I just got some longutbes installed about a month ago, and the car just recently started acting weird..Car seems to like bog completely down every once in a while..Like it will shut off, but it comes right back on..it feels like its gonna run out of gas..My friend put it on a scanner and it said i had some thrown codes, obviously from my longtubes and no cats no, but there was something with the MAF, and this code that said "Extended Valve Pintle Stuck Open" my buddy asked one of his friends and he said i should get new fuel injectors, he said thats what it sounds like. I just wanted to see what u guys thought its possible it could be? Thanks for the help guys

I swear it has something to do with the plugs, I have never had this problem before and if you didnt !AIR then it must be the plugs. SOMEONE HELP!
