Default help idling at 2000 revs and more probs !!!!

(wrx 1994) i had a problem with my maf as my car kept stalling so i bought a new maf and car started and idled until i took it up the road ,when i stopped at junction it started to idle at between 1800 and 2000 revs which is 1000 more than it should then when it hits boost it hesitates and engine check light comes on and stays on, im realy at a loose end with this car as its been playing up none stop for the last 2 weeks now

Did you do an ECU reset when you swapped the MAF over? It'll still be trying to compensate for your malfunctioning old MAF if you didn't, so that might account for some part of the problem.

would be best to read the codes via the wires under the dash and also do a reset using them
