MAF is giving me issues. Any harm in pre-emptively going RS2 MAF on an otherwise non-rs2 car?

Yes... it will send the ECU the wrong signals, and that's not fair to anyone.

Default I went from a non RS2 MAF on a RS2'ed car to a RS2 MAF
Didn't really make a difference...

Default An unscreened UrS car MAF has similar flow characteristics to an RS2 MAF but....
there is a risk that running unscreened, a squirrel will be sucked in and bend the "hot wire" in the MAF.

Really.

(well, maybe not squirrels, but small rodents...)
