This would rule out the MAF as the problem. Go to Renntech.org and search these codes for your specific car year and model. Sounds like a vacuum leak is more likely. Here is one thread for the same model range car: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=18257&hl=1128+1130+codes
once again another code definition..

and yes, a vacuum leak can cause the same codes.. on the list of things to check, vacuum leaks are first...

and actually the DME has much more diagnostic info available than you get to see. The car manufacturers are required to follow the OBDII code protocal & comunication standard if they want to sell cars in the US, but they dont put all the info in there..

you need to have the Porsche diagnostic tools, (which are propietary to Porsche), to see all the info there is..

Of course I haven't worked with car stuff since 2000, so alot could have changed since then...
