Majority of people here will say it's not worth it. I cant risk it so I left mine alone. i trully believe there are benifits to upgrading the maf if the tuner is compotent but I have yet to prove it.

The MAF is calibrated with the screen in place so removing it may allow more air to flow past but the computer won't be reading that extra air properly. So it would take some custom tuning to work with it. The screen supposedly helps straighten the airflow as well so removing it may result in a loss of power. You could try it and see what happens, but don't damage it or you're getting yourself another MAF.
