if you want to know for sure if it's the MAF, unplug yours and go for a drive. the car will use a default fuel map rather than sensor driven maps. if the MAF is the problem, your drivability issues will go away.

that having been said, if this were the MAF, O2 sensors, etc, you'd be getting codes left and right. when you put your key in the ignition, turn it to the ACC position but don't start the car. make sure the CEL lights up; it's possible the bulb is bad.

if still no codes & MAF is good, take it somewhere. throwing parts at the car is an expensive proposition. it's cheaper in these circumstances to pay the guy. i'm with the others; fuel starvation sounds likely. stop driving the car if you can.
