Unless someone can actually present figures for the MAF readings dropping with our set up I just don't believe it. The physics doesnt add up.

I agree, air speed will be higher through the intake tube with the stock intake, but the airbox and laminar flow channels in the MAF, which dont change, neutralise that effect. The larger intake tube just means air pressure in the air box responds faster to engine demand, 'lag' in equalisation of the pressure is reduced.
