Periodically my BMS intake causes a CEL for too high of airflow, can't imagine what this one would do! But I also don't have any remap of the ECU to expect and handle the higher flow... so not a big deal, easy fix with another upgrade.

Please post videos with sounds.
In theory, MAF shouldn't care where it is. This intake isn't necessarily increasing the volume of air being pulled into the intake, just the routing it takes. So the actual airflow past the MAF shouldn't really change... in theory.

This is an awesome project, but I have to say it's jank as all hell and I love it.
