To figure out if that is your problem,just disconnect the wire for the MAF and it will put the computer into default mode,your car will run great if that's the problem.By the way,don't buy the bosch universal oxygen sensors if you ever need to replace any of them,they don't work .

Frank,
It worked! I pulled the harness off the maf sensor and the car started right up cold with no stumble. I kept it out of boost and drove it home with no issues. That was a great idea unplugging the maf! It kept the values set and allowed me to eliminate the maf from the equation, Thanks!
