And can you convert your MAF to a MAP?
Can't see it in the pic but there is a vent right before the compressor in the housing, no extra piping needed. Essentially it's equivalent to venting into the intake, this is why you may hear the venting sound with aftermarket intakes as they don't muffle the sound as much as the stock tract.

Converting is possible, heard about it being done on other cars but it's a very involved process including changing out the ECM/ECU, or use a piggyback designed to do so.

edit : lol damn, 1SeriesStud beat me to the punch
