MAF sensor question

My MAF sensor is toast so I need to buy a new one.

Can I use something like this?

Enough guys are around who upgraded their stock maf to go FI- keep an eye on the marketplace for Ones that come from non- revups. I should have one but I'm not sure I ever got it back from the shop.

I'm not 100% sure the maf itself changes between revup and non revup- it's all how it reports to the ecu's... Maybe someone else can chime in.

As for can or can't- I'm hesitant to say anything other than stock or purpose built for our cars ...

Yeah... I want to be sure before I order because I really don't want to be wasting money on something that isn't going to work for sure. The shop that I got the diagnostic at quoted me around $450 or something for parts and labor for one from the factory. That sounds ridiculous though..

My ball joint bushings are leaking too so i've got more stuff to replace too... it's like one thing after another..
