Going to be running boost soon and know I will need to upgrade my MAF but can not find anything about it, are there conversions I can do or maybe a MAF I do not know about I can purchase?
I didn't have to change from the stock MAF when I installed the Xcharger on my 2006, and I can't think of anyone I know with a 4.0 and supercharger or turbo that had to change the MAF.
That could be why you can't find anything about it.

What tells you that you need to change it?
I found an article on AmericanMuscle that said "Replacing a MAF sensor is a great idea for those who are heavily modded (forced induction/intense NA build)"(found on: https://www.americanmuscle.com/musta...ow-sizing.html) I also watched a YouTube video that recommended it and also I found something that says "When supercharging or turboing your vehicle, the upper range of your sensor output (under high airflow) is not compatible with your vehicle’s stock ECU (Engine Control Unit). " which makes it sound like when boosting I may run in to issues with the stock MAF(found on: https://modd.me/product/maf-adapter/) I am going to be running an EatonM90 with the modd.me kit (https://modd.me/product/05-10-mustan...tallation-kit/). Most of the information I found has led me to believe I would need to get an adapter or a new MAF but if you insist it is ok I am completely fine with ending my search for one because I have not been able to find one for a boosted s197 v6.
The Moddbox doesn't make the same power as the Xcharger did. No one with the Xcharger changed the MAF, nothing in the installation manual called for or recommended it. And I know a lot of people who boosted their 4.0's with supercharger and turbocharger, and none of them changed the MAF either.
