MAF sensor too close to air filter?

[luke456]

I have a K&N filter with a cold air intake. Every time i took out the filter to clean it, it was covered in mud. I want to try out the wai setup for a while and see how it goes. I had to relocate the MAF next to the air filter for everything to fit. Would that setup damage the MAF or is it ok to run it like that?

Thanks,

Luke

its in there, up front near the throttle body.

You probably won't damage it but the air flowing through will be very unstable so it's reading will be way off.
