I installed a performance air filter but to do so I had to remove the MAF sensor. The car runs kinda rough but not to the point to where its not drive-able. As you know the MAF sensor housing his a square outlet but the performance air filter his a round one so I had to remove it. What should I do in this situation? Find a different MAF sensor or just leave it as is?

THe MAF needs to be there and working or the engine will progressively get worse. I'm not sure what kind of air filter you got, but is there any way to replace the MAF? Honestly, I'm surprised it is running.
