just found a more cost-effective idea than that one, its possible to do a maf diy, ive looked into it and it seems all you need a is m30 maf sensor, and a piggy back ecu, like this

then just tune it on a laptop
after that and a cam, custom exhaust, and decent intake, port polish, we should be able to take on those 2.5 boys with there six pot wrongness
