tuning a 944NA with an Abaco sensor

Well I got into the MAF is better than AFM hype.. and man do I have second thoughts. I mean the numbers were good, it made sense, and the AFM is almost 30 years old now. So I went out and got an Abaco 85mm Quad sensor.
Well the car runs, it just doesn't run.. right.. I get to 3000 RPM very slowly and then it kinda sits there and chuckles. If I put the pedal to the floor it shudders and doesn't accelerate. I'm not a big car guy and I've been learning the ropes on this car. I think I may need to replace injectors, spark plugs, fuel lines, fuel rail ect.. but I'm pretty sure its the air flow sensor. So my question is does anyone have one of these that turned out well? should I just sell it to one of the 951 guys and just get a rebuilt AFM? I really want to keep the Abaco sensor because my fuel economy is well.. it hasn't dropped below 30 very often. So it IS working, just not all the way


please ignore this post /: my bad
