Exclamation P0304 & P0300 Code....Need Advice

Hello!
My 05 tC is throwing that codes and has very rare symptoms. I already take compression and is good. Also change #4 ignition coil and all spark plugs. And still with the CEL.........the symptoms are when reach normal working temperature start to misfire and sometimes goes to limp mode and dont run more than 2000rpm. When I shift gears revs goes down and accelerate gradually (slowly) even if I press full throttle..........when that happens vacuum gauge goes down too and start boosting slowly too.

This is a manual transmission, has been Supercharger 55,000 miles ago, engine forged completely a year ago and 10,000 miles, no leaks no problems. Intercooler with the engine build, 10psi (after lose in I/C and piping) AEM FIC dyno tuned with wideband.........

I want to know is anyone with that or similar symptoms?? I trace all the harness looking for bad cables, I check connectors and even take out and clean the block oil filter for the vvti.....Any suggestion are well welcome!!

try cleaning your maf, or if that doesnt work replace it. check all your couplers and clamps for anything that might be loose

I don't suggest cleaning a MAF. Replace it. it isnt an expensive part and there could be something else going on with it and for 100ish bucks just replace it.

pepboys carries refurbished maf sensors for 78 bux plus 55 core. got one last month for a customer. imho nothing wrong with cleaning it as long as your gentle.

i dunno it just comes across as a bandaid to me. maf's usually go bad shortly after something like this plus. 77 bucks is a drop in the bucket if you are boosted.

i agree with crush. maf or tune. ive been seeing alot of bad gas in cars. could be bad fuel. that can cause a p300 and p304 . misfire cylinder 4. but if it was bad you usally get all four. ive seen head gaskets cause misfires only when they warm up. check the coolant level. and check compression warm.

Thanks for all the help..........I already take compression and its ok. Only thing I need to check is the MAF, I Will tested this week and let you know the result. I want to find this very soon, I have new goodies to install but need to resolve this first. If anyone think in another possibility of this symptoms let me know. Thanks Again!!!
