The car is a MAF, so that has a pretty big role in it. Check connection there, and see if there is a way to test the MAF(Fairly new to evos, dont know if there is a specific way to do it). Next id check your neg battery terminal, clean it, and reconnect it. As well as positive. Check your ground straps(Me and grounds get along well, just ask the local evo guys lol) Run a new ground strap from the battery to earth(The chassis). See if any of that fixes it. Sucks you didnt make it, we had 7 cars tonight..

lol ground wont have nothing to do with it its not a honduh. lol na but check the MAF like he said also like joe said check the couplers. the plugs have gas on them b.c u have a boost leak somewhere and its sucking air in from the leak and making the car want to dump more gas so its dumping all the gas to compensate for the extra air (boost leak) and its makin the car run real rich b.c ur not burning the gas off its just sitting in the cylinders. Been there done that do the boost leak test and problem solved if not sell it

LOL. It could easily be a grounding issue. The whole reason i had my problem was my grounds were bad, and my ECU had no ground, so it was not turning on. Could happen on any car. Grounds can make a WHOLE bunch of problems that are VERY weird. But yea, what kennis said is a valid idea.

I think he should of kept his Evo. There was nothing wrong with it besides the clutch. I say we go and test drive the Evo and blow it up. There is no meth in the tanks and he said they didn't understand how to fill it up. It's a ticking time bomb lol.
