Not sure about the intake issue.. but the window issue is because your battery was disconnected..

Here's a topic that discusses it:

I would double check to make sure everything is plugged in. I think its just the computer trying to reset itself.

As far as the windows hold both buttons up for 15 seconds while the windows are rolled up and you should be good to go.

If you want to reset the computer your self do a search for reseting computer w/o disconecting the battery.

Window issue resolved thanks. Now the idling issues are what's concerning me. The car will not sit at a constant idle, it goes from about 800-900 rpm to 1200-1300 rpm. Like i said its all over the place.

both maf were not loose but sealed incorrectly,so they were sucking in air at the connections. hopefully it will resolve the issue.

I think that might be your problem right there, are there any leaks anywhere
