OK ... I probably just messed up my stock MAF, but I was gonna get a new Pro-M 80mm anyway. I am sure people have done this before, but are there any problems with deleting the center post of the stock MAF to open it up a little bit? I guess I should have asked this before I went nutty with the sawz-all and the dremel - but oh well. I kept a little of the rear plate at the rear of the sample tube, just in case it was needed for some reason. Other than than, I opened it all up and beveled the edge of the sample tube (outter and inner) for better aerodynamics. So ... like I said, anybody else done this with good results?
I also found my MAF wires to be coated with a soot looking coating - maybe it'll run better just because of that! Here are a couple pics:
