S5 GTU Starts without MAF

Hey guys, I've posted about my car before, but now we've tried a few things. We cleaned out the injectors, we got a new fuel pump, and a new MAF, but it still doesn't want to start. If you hold your hand completely blocking the air from getting to the engine, it starts, but stalls very soon after. There is also a loose wire hanging near the MAF that we don't know what it leads to. The car will run for a while if the MAF is not plugged in, it seems like the connection stops another wire from doing it's job, because the second the MAF is plugged in, the car stalls out.

well,the video was not real helpful.
I am thinking the loose one wire is for the Low coolant sensor on top of the rad( is that wire connected..if so,rule that idea out!)
was the engine replaced?..any fuel lines disconnected/.if so they could be backwards.
The Afm needs to be plugged in or the car may start but it will die..over and over.
