K&N or the like air filter? Chances are you sucked some of the oil onto the MAF contacts. You need to clean them with a can of MAF cleaner, you can get it from cambodian tire. I will take a look and see if there is a jumper for pulling the codes manually.

Problem is once I reset the code, it will drive normally untill I rev it hard over 6.5k (i never drive it past 6.5k ever but just for tesing purposes this is what I noticed). I did just change the airbox out with an aftermarket oil filter. I'm guessing maybe a dirty MAF? But friggin don't wanna mess things up until I get the code... | ford made a 4 liter v6 with a red line over 6000 RPM ?
wow

i know most imports have a way to read it through flashing signals... not sure if ford has it. Check the service manual.
