    I have had the hypertech installed since 6/12/14 without a problem. Don't think that is it. I assume that the hypertech programming cant change unless its failed. If it failed i think there would be symptoms other than a MAF trouble code.

    yep bank account is running low from it..
    After reading the hypertech website the firmware is rewriteable for the curves via usb connection. so firmware can get screwed up when loading it. It only takes one line or one number out of place to mess it up. I would rewrite the hypertech again to rule out a upload glitch. the way there software is done it doesnt check the checksums so the possible is there since it has got cold on you.

    Unless the hypertech has a cold solder joint somewhere. that would only show up when it cold...

    Keep us up to date on this.. running some ideas off the top of my head that might help..

    Ok the ecm is stored the code its not a problem to the ecm yet why no cel.... To me looks like you have some sort of drop out either in the maf or in the hypertech..

    Scangauge is not fast enough to catch the drop out only a lab scope can get the drop out.

    I would try to disconnect the hypertech( if you can) and see if the code hits up again.. rule out the hyper tech in or out of the problem..

    Haven't been home yet to try.

    Thank you everyone for helping troubleshoot. I'll have to do some research and prob call Hypertech tomorrow as well.
