I have currently maxed a maf and will be switching to a different maf as I prefer keeping the factory ecu maf based.

You are not kidding, dialing the cams for cruise and part throttle smoothness is a challenge as the problem typically exists in a narrow rpm and load range. I had to drive real time, initiate a hesitation, and then tweak those exact spots (Hydra tracks the map real time so you know exactly at what RPM and load to attack) until I found the happy spot.
Professional tuners will love the Hydra and most certainly see the value in it. I think many customers will exhaust the reflash route, spend $3k on tuning, big mafs, map sensors, dyno time, all before considering to buy a Hydra. Or wait until they brick the OEM ecu.
