Have you blocked off the cam breathers that vent into the inlet pipe? Maybe the oil vapour from them is getting onto the MAF?

swap the filter. Try an Apexi Kit they are a dry kit not oil based like the K&N.

Its the oil on these filters that shaft the maf. I used to have the same problem I swapped my filter for a fine mesh one haven't had any problems since.

Hope that helps

also make sure the pipe is solid as vibration can be a maf killer 2
