It actually would not add that much horsepower because it causes the air to be turbulent going into the throttle body. It does give much better airflow and adds a little bit of power but definitley not that much. I don't see how you broke the maf screen Buddha because there is a small ring kinda like a piston ring holding it into the groove. But if you want I might be able to hook you up.

If they existed I would be interested in a higher flowing MAF screen, larger holes or thinner material perhaps. I think I will keep my on for a while, the turbulence from it being off wouldnt be worth it because my intake pipe isnt entirely smooth.

I could goto the junk yard and get you like 20 MAF screens right now if you want...I mean the bonne isnt the only car with a 3800 so they arent uncommon to find. Rivi,PA,Cent,88,Camaro,etc. Goto the junk yard look for 2 mins and find one
