It was in the bodyshop getting repainted cause someone egged the entire car. Shes even better than before now.

UPDATE: Yesterday, i went home and pulled out the super expensive OBDII scanner my father has and decided to check realtime engine running data and right away 1 thing stuck out the most... On a nite where its 53 degrees the MAF airtemp sensor was returning a value of 113 degrees.

Then just for good measure since i didnt have any pcodes appearing, i told the scanner to show me the most recent previous pcodes triggered that arent current issues but past issues and i had "threshold rich cylindars 4-6 and 1-3" pcodes so that made it alittle more obvious that the MAF was causing the computer to dump loads of fuel into the cylinders at high RPMs because it thinks the air is so hot.

So unplugged the MAF and all the torq is back.. now to buy a new one.
