The 74mm MAF housing comes with a 74 mm MAF sensor, throw the 74mm sensor away and use the 68mm sensor instead. Single or double intakes, the engine can only use so much air no matter what is available. The 74mm MAF sensor is not smart, it just gives signals based on air passing it, those readings will be as if it was in a V8. The 68mm MAF sensor signals will be closer to the requirement as it was calibrated for use with this engine.
180 - if that was in response to my post, please understand that I am in complete agreement with you.
Heck, I don't even HAVE a 74mm MAF sensor .......
