Default problem w/87 and MAF Relay

when and if the car starts it runs like crap. It back fires through the intake, and bogs when you open the throttle. Remove the MAF Burn Off relay and it runs like a champ. Any ideas whats going on? Is there a common fault in the harness somewhere? I've replaced the MAF Relays, fuel pump relay, ECM, ECM Chip and the MAF sensor.

Probably be better to ask this on the C4 side.
