Many modern computers can operate on as few as 2 of the 5 inputs they originaly contain. Using techtom software, several tuners can "teach" the stock computer to recognize MAP sensor voltage readings instead of MAF readings. It's a simple 0-5 volt sensor and as long as the maps are correct, the effect is the same.
I'm not saying this is the optimal setup, and most times, if you're going to the trouble of all these mods, You'll likely run an aftermarket EMS setup, but it is possible and people do run their cars like this.
