I bought the C&L MAF housing for about $150 and it was well worth it. Just unbolt the stock sensor and put in it it's new home. The sample tubes are changable. I wouldn't recommend porting the stock one because as i've read about them, the restriction is there for a venturi effect that increases flow through the sample tube which flows past the hot and cold wire. If you mess with it, the calibration will be incorrect and chances are it will run fine, but you may lose quite a bit of power because the computer won't be able to accurately calculate load and air/fuel for the load.
