symptoms of a dying MAF???

i think it is dying, the symptoms i have are

rough idle, if i give her gas and she gets into the 4500 range she bogs and tries to die, wont go all the way to redline.

Ramz i told u already......Maf symtom's that happen to me ill classify them in Stages.

Stage 1: Maf slightly damaged *rev till 4100 rpm and car would lose ALL torque and power and just bog out.*

Stage 2: Maf damaged more *rev till 3000 rpm car would bog out and go timing retarded till redline*

Stage 3: This time i heard the maf pop *rev till 2200 and car wouldnt pass that as if some one ripped my car a new ******* and it couldnt move no more........poor car..

LISTEN TO UR ELDERS RAMZ lol XD ^_^

dude i bought the maf for no reason, it wasnt the prob. when my car was in the shop, the ********, kept starting the car with a screw driver on the starter method, so he might have fried the ecm.
