Default Nitrous miss?

Trying to figure out what's going on? I tried running the nitrous last week(100 shot, Nitro daves 78 MM plate system), but only at around 700 psi for reasons beyond my control and had a bad miss. Today I ran it at 950 psi and still had a mid to high rpm(off and on) miss. Bottle pressure was still 950 psi after the run.. Also everytime(I've only run nitrous twice, noob)) I run the nitrous I throw a MAF code(Voltage out of range, not sure of the number) hence the SES light you see. Any ideas what could be going on? No sense running it at the track til I get the bugs out and I don't want to hurt the motor. Tranny is shifting at 6100 on my aftermarket tach..

First vid is cutouts open NA, only miss is when it hits the limiter on 1-2 shift


This is a vid I shot tonight, am I crazy or is there a miss on the juice that isn't there NA.. Any ideas what would cause this?

You talking right around 12-13 sec. mark on the bottom vid?

What stall is that?

Not the 1-2 shift, just after that around 10 sec mark and then a little in 3rd.. Harder to hear on the vid but it was there... Stall is 3200.. Today was much better than last week, here's last weeks at 700 psi and you can really hear the miss..

I was afraid of that. Must be because it's my car and I know how it sounds... Any idea why the MAF would keep throwing a code? Never threw a code before spray..

can you get the code number? i could see throwing a p0103 code (maf high input) if it was a dry shot hitting the maf, but your maf shouldn't be seeing any nitrous unless the plate was somehow spraying a good amount towards it.
can you scan while spraying?

also... check your plugs?

Well last night when it threw the code all I did was turn the bottle heater on.. Wasn't even spraying.. I'm just going to take it back to the shop that did the install, something isn't right.. Agreed, shouldn't be anything hitting the MAF as this is a plate kit..

Went and had the code checked.. P0101..

I found a bad ground, going to fix that and hope that takes away the nitrous miss.. Good thing is is runs fine NA, I'll get it figured out.. Any input on the code though would be greatly appreciated..
