VAF? What was the code? Typically MAF isn't fixable, unless it's the connector or wiring harness.

stop typing in colors its drivin me nuts....

the MAF for the most part isnt fixable just get a new one.
the other sensor for your CAI is supposed to go in the pipe usually there is a hole in the midpipe for it to fit. if not get a step bit and drill your own.
