Still having running issues

UPDATED LIST:

EVERY hose, valve and solenoid under the intake including the iris valve
intake gaskets
pcv valve
fuel filter
Throttle Body and IACV cleaned and new gaskets
6 reman injectors
New hoses on top of fuel tank behind back seat
New oem fuel cap door
4ga alternator wiring upgrade
Brand new intake boot
NGK Laser Iridium Plugs
Coil Packs (low mile used, so still could be culprit)
Coolant Temp Sensor
Knock Sensors
MAF (twice, used so still could be culprit)
TPS and adjustment (several different ones, used so still could be culprit)
Cam and Crank Sensors (several different ones, used so still could be culprit)
Subaru SVX Stage 1Av1 ecu and tcu from ecutune.com

It is hard starting NOW... never had that issue until taken to mastro subaru for all valves and solenoids under intake.
It has a hesitation under normal acceleration.
Random stumble meaning it feels like the car SHUTS OFF for a 100th of a second or so... VERY QUICK AND VERY RANDOM
The idle isnt rough but it isnt right... hard to explain... the bobblehead on my dash and the vibration when on the brake pedal is worse than ever... BUT VERY MINOR.

Any suggestions??????

Signed
BROKE AND STILL BROKEN

P.S. I calculated my gas cost to drive it to svxfiles... good lord... 971 miles...
BUT I AM RUNNING OUT OF OPTIONS...
NO TURNING BACK NOW!!!

Re: Still having running issues

Maybe it would make sense to meet up with one of the Florida guys and test swap some of the easy things with know good ones. I'm thinking mostly of Maf and coils.

Re: Still having running issues

MAF you have replaced twice? I have a stock maf here that I know works well, I plan to drive down, though not in the svx unfortunately, to the tampa meet feb 15. I could grab the maf if you want to try another.

The items you are listing seem like vac hose not correct perhaps? or just loose

Re: Still having running issues

That depends if it works for you.

I do not think I need it so if it works it is.
