Hi, my car recently suffered an "accident" when it was set on fire intentionally by a mysterious person. But that's a story for another day. I'm here because I need you to help me out with my car.

When I suddenly step on the gas, the car makes a weird noise and it loses a lot of power. Plus the engine feels like it's got not power at all.

I recorded a video on the issue so you guys can have a better idea of the issue:

What could it be?

I tried replacing the air filter assy (it's melted, so it was useless), and added a cone air filter to see if the issue was gone but I didn't have luck.

That is very strange. Does the engine computer log any error codes?

Also, besides the air filter assembly, what have you replaced?
