nope all i could see was the airbox and the maf sensor but this was happening before i fitted its gotta be the MAF sensor seeing as i had a similar issue with a fiesta but that where i completely removed the sensor and didnt even think about it

wont need put other filter back in be nowt do with that, as said try unplugged maf, if still sh!te check everypipe for boost leaks, 1s under the inlet are known for splitting all the time
