Check the heater ckt?
There is a heater in the sensor to heat it up faster during initial start up. Sounds like the wiring may be bad.

Wtf!
My wag: too much LSD

Looks like an RS4 to me
It has direct injection pumps
Oil fill cap in the right place

imo you must take it to a garage and see what is wrong
Usually the difference in what you can get for a running vs non-running car will FAR outweigh the cost of repair. And it will be much easier to sell.

imo necessary
Firm believer in an initial change after 3-4k miles (break-in)
And every 40-50k after that

imo the sensor seems ok
Something is choking it down >5000 rpm

Yep imo clutch switch
Having to hold the starter is a symptom

Beat me to it lol
140 g/sec at 7800 seems low
Take readings at intervals
3000, 4000, 5000, so on (20-22 g/sec per 1000 rpm)

The reason I asked is that a bad clutch switch has similar symptoms. I would put the oem box back on and see if that clears it up before springing for a new MAF. Did you clean it when you had it out? It has the oem airbox fitted . Has a k&n panel filter which I cleaned whilst it was removed but it'...

Does your cruise control still work?

It might just be the new intake

Definitely worth doing.
Mine were delaminating a bit and I applied epoxy and clamped them.
Looked like new

Did you:
Clean the connector with the proper stuff
Inspect the wiring for damage
Make sure it's securely inserted 'click''
Try putting an oem filter in
Is the a/m filter oiled
???

I was trying to work out why the wheels seemed to fill the arches more but looked like the stock cloverleaf ones. It’s because they’re the Stelvio Quadrifolgio 20’s. Looks spot on. Need to avoid potholes with 25 profiles. 20's! Did not realize that. I looked at the configurator and they are require...
