bucking above 1.1 bar, max boost 1.3

[Chris Covington]

Jeff,

Yes I did steam clean the engine on Thursday.  It was a little rough on
Friday with similar symptoms, but I also drove 400 miles this weekend and
didn't experience anything Saturday on the first leg of the trip.
So I thought all the moisture would've gotten out of the system.

Today the problem was completely gone, 1.8 bar, no hesitation, which
leads me to definitely think the problem is electrical of some sort.  All
the hoses, including that Michelin man are fine.  If it remains fine I'll
assume it was moisture.
I'm going to get rid of that K&N ASAP also, and check all the MAF
electrical connections today.

Thanks for all your help!
