Neil,

Retaining the 987 MAF housing could itself can cause ECU issues as the diameter is larger than the 986 housing iirc. I have heard, stories where the ECU may adapt but I tend to take these with a grain. Unless your friends custom tune is geared for a larger diameter, he will likely get mixture issues.
