Man that really sucks dude. Sounds like you may have damaged the MAF when you took it out. I take it you've checked the connections and made sure there is a VERY tight seal where the MAF connects to the intake tube. If there is even a slight leak there, it will kill the car, especially under hard acceleration. Due to air getting in past the MAF, and into your engine unmonitored. My suggestion would be to take out the popcharger and put the stock airbox back in. If it still keeps happening, take it to nissan and have them look at it, with the stock airbox on. If it's just the popcharger, do like I said and make sure you have the MAF pushed into the intake tube ALL THE WAY, and that it has a good seal. Also, be sure you didn't bend the lip of the intake tube around where the MAF goes in. I've seen so many people do this, and it's real easy to do. Good luck.

Yeah...sorry to hear you're having troubles man. I installed my Popcharger last weekend and its awesome!!!!!
I think you damaged your MAF sensor during the install. They are pretty delicate. I hope thats not the case though for your sake.
