Its not a rotary event until someones car breaks down, it just happened to be the newest car there with the least amount of miles

semi hard launch from a stop sign, all of a sudden car bogs like its nobodies business, wont go anymore and i let off the gas... idle dips SO FAST, straight to 0. I pull off to the side of the road, try to start it and it turns over and then dies in 5 seconds.

Spark plug wires came loose on coils #1 and #4 (fixed by pushing on them)(did coils plugs and wires the night before, only had 70 miles on them at the time)

MAF gasket was broken (fixed with electrical tape, and bored out the middle with a knife)

2nd screen in my CAI was turned 90 degrees (fixed by turning it back around)

Car now idles better than it did when i first bought the car, didnt have any problems coming home either. Just need to buy a stupid gasket now before i drive it again.

THANKS RAY!!!
glad ya made it, you did show late. was a great event,
