Default Induction question

I'm doing a few mods for my bone stock 2000 A4 Z28. I picked up an LS6 manifold, ported tb and a full exhaust. Was planning on getting a lid and possibly the FTRA. My question is, is it worthwhile to get a smooth bellows and a ported MAF end or are they a waste of money?

It wont help you at all. The stock MAF is good to somewhere around 500 HP, and the smooth bellow is just a waste of time.

Save that money and put it toward gears and a stall converter.

The smooth bellow isn't a waste. It serves a purpose. But only on a nitrous car. It makes it easy to place your nozzle properly. That's about it though.
