If your using an digital meter then ya your readings will be all over the place at times. I'd start by cleaning the resistance wire, you have to be delicate so don't blast the throttle body/maf cleaner at it.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
Just check out Youtube, there's videos there showing how to clean the resistance wire(s) in your vaf. Digital gauges bounce around a lot where as analog gauges tend to give a more stable reading.

I understand digital meters bounce around, but when I hold it in one position and is showing an incorrect reading then I feel its probably accurate. I've tested them before just been awhile but don't remember second guessing my results. I also didn't find any videos on cleaning VAF's just MAF's.
Figured it out on my own as I usually do. Thanks Dan for trying.
Funny how when I notice just the littlest decrease in performance, I instantly start diagnosing and testing everything and sure enough even though I had no codes there was still a problem. Damn I love a properly running N/A ZE!
