Stock one..

You remapp your stock ECU..???? How is this possible..???

Anyway..the few possibility is..

Your throttle body is dirty..get it clean and hope it is not faulty.
Your MAF sensor is dirty..get it clean.
And if you have installed a speed cut remover b4..have a look at that

If it is not the above (cheapest possibilities) ..then send your car into a workshop that can help you diagnose the problem..

NOTE: Please be reminded that we are Altezza owners and not qualified mechanic and don't pretend to be one....so my advise is to go see a qualify workshop to sort out your problems and not second guess ..it cost you more later!!

Normally I have my Throttle body cleaned every 3 consecutive service as a preventive measure. If you dont know how to clean it properly, u might damaged the throttle body. So I suggest you have it done by a workshop.

I just use the CRC Contact Cleaner bought from ACE hardware to clean mine. :P
* talking about it, it is time to clean my MAF soon.. *

i kno there's a shop in PJ, opposite PJ hilton and near KFC, the shop is not facing the main road one and they have quite a full range of CRC products.
