Thanks for all of the feedback boys, much appreciated. I finally managed to sort out the last of the stumbles and such. Oscar, I may need to borrow them later.
Cleaning the MAF yesterday with Oscar's electronics cleaner helped, but the real culprit was definitely... wait for it... the @%@$#% FING Steeda 8MM wires!
Driving it around since I bought it from Stan, it was always a bitch to get it to pull through 6K. It would go, but it dragged its ass doing so. Pulling through in 3rd? Fuggedaboutit. Just grab 4th.
Uh, not now. *evil grin*. Now it's as smooth as my old ZX5.
Given how it drove with the new plugs, coilpack and fuel filter vs. now with the new wires - wow. And the OE replacements are 8mm apparently. That's more than good enough for me until I go FI in the spring.
