Default MAF Sensor

I bought a new MAF Sensor from the store here which promised up to 22hp more, I installed it last night along with a SLP Blackwing, ordered the MAF unit for an aftermarket air induction and now my Service Traction control light comes on and the vehicle shifts hard. Along with my check engine light. I took the MAF sensor off this morning and left the SLP and everything is fine. Any ideas why it would effect the Traction Control? undefined

I hate to say it but no MAF alone will give you 22 hp period. Unless you have problems with your old one ,I would stick to stock. The reason you Check engine light is on is because your new MAF is calibrated differently.The computer thinks it's the stock sensor and compensating your fuel trim with the wrong values which is probably setting an O2 sensor code ..
