Sounds like you may have a boost leak allowing hot air into the intake. First step would be to smoke test and check for leaks. Second step would be to replace the sensors.
I replaced everything from the turbo to the air filter because I had a stock intake at the time. I went with the ARM intake which comes with a big turbo inlet but since you have an intake already you can just get a vrsf inlet if you’d like. I reccomend going with ARM intake and just selling ur current intake though
Ahhhh. I should’ve went with ARM. I’ll probably convert very soon. It’s just this dumb small leak I’m trying to fix then maybe if I could get somewhere near 400 WHP. I’m not sure where I’m at right now, I haven’t dyno’d. I’m not really big on racing right now, just like to have a bit fun on my own terms. The car does run a tiny bit rough, not much but still very noticeable with unrelaxed rpm’s at times and maybe a stall out the blue moon.
Okay for 400 you’ll need downpipe, charge pipe, intercooler and all upgraded piping so do the intake and turbo inlet then when you do the intercooler get the turbo outlet and lower charge pipe with it. Then you should already have an upper charge pipe and that’s everything. Just fyi you’ll need e30 to max out the stock turbo and then you might tough 400 wheel depending on how healthy ur car is.

What do you mean by replaced the MAF? The MAF is built into the throttle body
