I thought of this too. A 'dummy' maf could be installed on the side that may possibly have less resistance. This way, both sides would have similar resistance, with only one being actually read from by the ECU. I was told that the maf itself is little to no resistance to airflow so I didn't include it but for those that think it has some resistance, another one could be put on the other intake tube.
