You shouldn't. There are many turbo'ed Imports (yes, Imports) that run GM MAF sensors (our size and some others) with 15 psi without any trouble. All you should really need is a decent tune to gett he MAF dialed in for your boost levels.

If you run an LS based MAF, you will have to recalibrate your MAF table and get a 5-wire plug adaptor since the IAT sensor and MAF are combined into one unit.
