Could you give us more information on this vehicle such as what the symptoms your having, any recent repair history before this happened, and what things have been replaced? Was a different scan tool or code reader used to see if those codes still show up when scanned. Seems there is something flakey going on.

well I work at a body shop so the scan tool I used im pretty sure was different from theirs but the car itself in the repair history has had abs/break work done as far as codes. The guy we bought it from did a few things like the coil and spark plugs and breaks and water pump, but the car itself runs and drives really well. great compression in all cylinders and the air cleaner is not clogged up. only thing I kind of notice is that it shakes a little bit at idle

I would try a different scan tool just to see what codes show up. Don't understand why your getting MAF codes on that one. Strange.

well anther scanner picked up code p0420 which is a common code for the catalytic converter so I will just hope it fixes the problem and thanks for the help

That code just tells you it detects lower efficiency not definitely replace a converter. If converter is truly bad it was probably killed not the cause and could do so to a new one,

well I went ahead and replaced the catalytic converter and I hooked up the scan code and it was reading the p0420 code and I cleared it and it work so car seams to idle a little better as well.
