Default Spec v problem

Hi everybody, I just bough a nissan ser spec v 2004 with a turbonetic kit in. I have a problem with the car, when it rain outside or there is lot of humidity, the car is not able to start. Well the engine start and stop after 2 seconds. Maybe the problem is the unichip because it's under the hood and the humidity goes in ? I would like to know what you think about that. Thank you.

Jay

Have you tried cleaning your MAF sensor? Tue Unichip is a sealed unit so I doubt that's the issue

O2 Sensor, MAF might actually be bad, or vacuum leak of some kind. What vacuum are you seeing at idle?

That's solid vacuum. Might try seeing if a buddy with the same car can trade MAF sensors with you to see if that's the issue. Is that a possibility?
