1) Has your car had the "snorkel" removed from the inlet duct behind the L/H/S air inlet?
2) Have you checked the condition of the air filter?
3) Have you checked the inlet pipe (filter to throttle body) to make sure its still attached, tight and / or not broken?
4) How do I say this without being flamed by a forum expert - do you have an oiled aftermarket filter? You know, the ones that have to be oiled which affects the MAF or lets dust and contaminent's in if you don't oil......
