Yes, it did feel like fuel starvation. Like when you run out of gas and the engine dies out only to catch when the fuel sloshes back to be picked up.
I had changed my fuel filter @ a 60k service so it wasn't that and also tried numerous things (as stated in my previous post) before changing my MAF. The reason I did that last was I never once has a CEL so thought, 'It's not the MAF'. Ended up changing it as a last resort and it fixed my issues.
This might not be the cause of your problems, just do not rule it out.
Releese,
if you do decide to get a new MAF, you can find them online for 200-300 as opposed to 300-400. You just have to do a little searching.

Quite a few online discount autoparts places that have it cheaper do not list it as a Mass Air Flow Sensor but mix up the name calling it a Mass Air Meter, Air Mass Meter, Air Mass Sensor...the word jumbles goes on....
... just make sure you order the correct one.
