you do know the pic of his MAF showes air straighteners(1/2"x1/2" square that's 1/4-1/2" in depth) the maf is sitting some where aft of those; probably by the same distance, all that plate is doing is creating a vacuum in the intake behind it causing any blockage of the MAF to be none.

BTW. some people think removing the MAF air straightener to give them a performance increase(i'm talking hp)
