Yes, you can turn it into MA. You should look into a conversion kit from AMP Performance. They start at $369. You can just get the basics or you can get new meters & cai. I believe they price all the way up to $650. The website is ampperformance.com but they are down for construction. They will be back up in a couple weeks but here is their information:

AMP Performance
4346 E. University Drive
Pheonix, AZ 85034-7318

(800) 454-8387 <------ Toll Free
(602) 437-2727
(602) 437-2477

There are other companies who make this conversion but I know this one is very popular.

Well you can but its just easier to get it through AMP because you can get the upgraded mass air meter and everything all at once (only if he needs it). I didnt know that AMP wasnt good though. I had a friend who ordered some stuff through there and everything worked out well.

Talk to Tom at AMP. He know's what he's talking about. I bought some stuff from them and I didn't haven't any problems with them. There Mass air start at 360 for a used system and the 650 is for a new meter, computer and a cold air intake. I would get it from them.

Agreed, Ive really never heard something bad about them until now. I know a couple people who have had good experiences with them. I think every company has atleast one bad transaction though. Same thing happened to me at 50resto. Took them over 2 months for headers, but I hear good things about them all the time.
