Gurgling and Popping/MAF

I have been getting some gurgling and popping on startup when the engine is cold. Car runs great when warmed up and I am getting no CEL's. I cleaned the throttle body, the MAF sensor and I cannt find any vacuum leaks.

I plan on replacing the fuel filter and putting in new plugs (one year old) and coilpacks (original). Hopefully that will fix the problem, if not, I suspect it could be the MAF sensor (replaced about 30K ago).

I freaked when I called Suncoast to see what a MAF would cost, $477.00, they said they retail for close to 700.00. Thats nuts, is there a cheaper alternative for my MAF (996.606.124.00), thanks.
