60MPH+ and loss of power.

OK so i came across a new problem this morning. I was on my way to school and i decided to take me Z on a ride on the high way. i hit 60 everythings good, but as soon as i press the break to slow down the car shuts off and loses power completely. At this point im still rolling and i just turn it on again. WTF???? lol help...please?

Search how to properly install a cone filter. Turbulence, caused by not having the splash shield and cone filter installed together properly, disrupted your MAF signal and caused an air/fuel ratio that stalled the engine.

What if this happens but car doesn't start again also code 12 comes up (MAF)? Changed 2 MAF's on the 3rd now. Everytime so far it seems fine at 1st (runs good no codes) then stalls and code 12 comes up again and car never starts again until I put a new one in.

werd. had an injen cold air/cone intake running open, ended up catching uneven idle after acceleration, the occasional stall after high rpm to straight neutral.
