Default vehicle not responding

I found the problem. I tried a freinds actron 9580 and it showed the code. Do not know why my code reader had the problem. It was the same code I have had before. The stinking mass air flow sensor. It had always showed it before. I guess I am going to have to buy the $200 4 inch piece of plastic. I have cleaned it about 10 times!

I was also thinking about a ppe redirect for routing the turbo breather hose from the turbo intake to a catch can. Have used this product or know anyone who has. It says it eliminates the oil contamination in the tubo duct and lowers engine pressure.
