Installed ok, however once I turned the car on, it kept shutting off. Then, the car calmed down and stayed on, but the check engine light came on and the stabilitrak and traction control light came on. It kept telling me to service the Stabilitrak...Once I test drove it, it was fine for a few minutes, then the car started stalling and actually turned off multiple times while driving!!! I had a buddy who is good with cars help me on the install, there were no leaks and the MAF was installed correctly, followed all directions. Had to return everything to stock, and everything went back to normal.

Any ideas guys? WOuld rather not blow a ton of money getting it installed at a shop, but I feel like it may the the only way now....

Sorry to hear about the issues. I had no trouble with mine for the moment I installed it. Did you go over every connection again and again. Maybe the MAF was not plugged in all the way. Did you do the install with the battery disconnected. Might try that if you didn't. This way it starts off on a new learn. Clamps all tight. There really is not that much that can go wrong.
