I was wondering, if i could take the electronics out of my mass air, and just put them into my pvc intake? would this throw off my sensor, or could it work? im staying with 19's.

it wont work. the mass air electronics read the amount of air as per calibration of the mass air. there would be no calibration in a pvc tube and throw all sorts of **** off

nope, not unless you could make it to exact specifications, such as a cnc machine. You'd need a sampling tube to make it work right, like a C&L. Not worth the trouble just to wind up with a ghetto MAF.
