you'll need this link (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-3-Inch-Adapter-Flange-for-Apexi-Power-Air-Filters_W0QQitemZ130286361030QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK _CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item130286361 030&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318) then you can use a normal silicone reducer to shrink it from the 3" to the size of the MAF sensor & mount it directly

Thankyou, so i just need a silicone hose 3" to say 2" if that's the size of the MAF, shorter the better but longish to stay away from the engine heat unless i can make a barrier?, i love this car, it's only 225BHP but i've never owned something so fast :)

yeh once you've got the collar just need the reducer to fit the MAF. I wouldn't bother with a heat shield, i've ran many a different intake set-up & open works fine when your on the go, just mount it as close to the opening as possible
