Odd thing happened while driving
that's funny about shutting the hood. I never thought to search on it. Just thought it was something stupid that only my car did. hope you find your answer and yeah that guy was a troll
Yep, its the MAF, the reason people tell you to search is because we keep answering the same questions..
Concussive noises (bangs, fireworks, loud exhaust, etc.) will mess with the stock sensor, the stock airbox has a baffle system and diaphragm inside it to minimize it, but it can still happen.
If you set off a blockbuster near the car it could actually stall.
The stock Karman sensor detects how many little vorticies go past it, its very sensitive to air pressure changes, and sudden pressure changes are detected by the sensor. Also most aftermarket filter/pipe upgrades no longer properly anchor the sensor, so vibration becomes a factor also.

did you iknow that there is a place that sells kits similar to a co2 sprayer for the intercooler, but instead it just shoots a spray of c02 towards the car next to it... the theory being that the car will ingest a bunch of C02 and stumble during a race...
Freaking rediculous isn't it.....
