    Be carefull with the boost and 92. Especially when you suspect knock sensors not working properly. The results can be demolishing.

        MAF - I had months of this pain on mine - it would be fine some days, then rubbish on others... Seemed to be worse at high temps. No fault codes ever... Changed the MAF to a spare and its like a different car.

        At high temps I know my original coils and HT stubs (ABY) are causing a lil grief with misfires but I don't get the cutouts anymore.

        Borrow a spare MAF or airbox if you can - the MAF is an expensive booger to change on a whim. Oh and be sure to reset the ECU first - just in case its running a funky/safety map cos of bad values from the MAF.
