Message	Generally speaking MAP setups are easier to setup and tune than MAF. That being said, MAF is a more accurate measure of the amount of air being pumped by the engine. Where MAP is making an estimate about the amount of air going through the engine (based on temperature, pressure, and RPM) a MAF sensor is physically measuring the amount of air (mass) flowing through the intake. All other things being equal, MAF will give a more accurate measurement.
