I am 99% sure its not the MAF... the MAF wouldn't cause a problem quite like this... I think it would be shi*tty driving all around town, etc... and the shops I took the car to yesterday agreed. They are saying it's something in the fuel line which is obvious and I agree with that. It might be fuel pump, f-filter (doubtful), throttle body (likely). The performance shop that I have taken the car to a few times told me to have the dealer resynch or reprogram it? He said they have software and can program it or something along those lines. And he didn't mean just to unplug the battery which is what I thought he was trying to pawn off as a problem solver. So I am going to ask Porsche if there is such a program or tuning of the throttle body, etc. I have alot of knowledge in some areas and almost none in other areas and the throttle body is an unknown for me.

Oh and not to mention if the MAF was a prob I'm assume there would be a CEL. (there isn't)
