i only ask if the maf should be after the turbo because the map sensor works on pressure and if maf is after turbo then it will give a good reading of map being close to the tb as opposed to being before turbo just a thought is all

You posted 4 times in 3 hours. You're asking questions that 99% of us have never had to think about. Please try to be patient.

No, very few of us have done engine swaps. As far as I know, there aren't many folks tuning with the E-manage. As for where to put the MAF, I have no experience with turbo-charging. Sorry.

Again, try to be patient. Not everyone is on EvoM 24-7.

MAF would definitely be after the turbo (and near the TB). I've also hear about the honeycomb getting damaged by the boost.
MAP conversion is quite popular in the turbo kits.

Over here on this side of the pond most peoples MAF is before the turbo. There are reports of it only being able to take so much PSI (Evos + Lancers).

Not saying you cant do it; just theres a limit to how much it can take.

VRX? I thought that was the Ralliart over here. But you say you have a 4G94 engine?

IIRC 8 PSI should be ok. Why are you looking to have the MAF after the turbo? Vent to air?
