Hi, I recently done an emission test on the car. They said I had to replace cat converter, but i replaced the flexpipe, all the way to the muffler about a month ago so that was kind of odd, but I had them replace it in order to pass emissions. The cat they put it was bigger. they also replaced the PCV valve. Ever since I left the mechanic, acclerating from a stop has never been the same, feels like all power has been lost. Any ideas or suggestions, this is driving me nuts.. I did notice quite a crack on the mass airflow sensor hose, could that be the problem by any chance? please help.

Hi there,

Thank you for the donation,

What i would like you to do first up is go get a scan and check for any unresolved fault codes, not all faults will set the MIL, let me know what you find.
