while it IS running is it sputtering or running like crap? Or does it just start and quit? I have forgot to plug things back in like the MAF, and other stuff under the hood and that has happened. Were you doing anything to the car before this happened?

Have you tried cleaning the MAF? Or maybe if you know the correct voltage you could check to see if it's operating properly. Oh. sorry just looked at the original post and I see that you changed the MAF... Uh... I hope someone can chime in here and give you a hand. I don't have time to read all this but maybe it could help.....http://articles.d-tips.com/art8.html

Seems like one guy put his in upside down and had problems.

O2 sensors connected properly?

Are you using a K & N Filter by any chance, fresh oiling can do this to the MAF. Pretty obvious MAF could be issue. I'll look up my codes and get back to you.

I was poking around with the diablosport tuner and it found a few faults, one of which was P2105 : Throttle Actuator Control System - Forced Engine Shutdown

*Note: This came from another forum on the code, may be of some help.

Don't superchargers require a cooler plug? Could that be why they are failing and not burning fuel off? The wet plugs is why I thought of messed up O2 sensors as another thing to check.

Yea its nice to have my Mustang back to life,if its another vehicle I dont give a ***** but when its the mustang the time cant go fast enough to figure out what it is and fix it

Another problem when you plug the o2 sensor reversed so it tries to adjust the wrong bank and that messes up big time
