you will also need a bigger throttle body and a CAI to notice it as you are just moving around the restriction if you only swap out the MAF

there arent any aftermarket sensors that are worth the money, since the OEM sensor and EEC is quite sensitive to uncalibrated meter changes, its a waste of cash. You wont see more HP unless you get a tune and but it will be because of the tune, not the sensor.

Wouldn't a MAF sensor be useless if you get a tuner?
Cause don't the tuners adjust the AF sensor?
Correct me on this.
