MAF []
Mass Air Flow sensor. Used to measure the amount of air entering the intake. This sensor works by heating an element and then measuring the rate of cooling of that element, that is, the amount of current needed to keep the element at a given temperature. This sensor feeds the ecm so that the fuel delivery can be adjusted dynamically.

MAP []
Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor. A sensor used to meter air flow into the intake indirectly by measuring plenum pressure. This sensor is not as precise as a Mass Air Flow, (see MAF), and is sometimes used in combination with a MAF. The MAP is a simpler setup.
