My exact thought

Buy HPT and don't look back. It will be the best purchase so far..

If you're not tuned for the 2 bar speed density, put the stock map sensor back in.

You can be 2bar Maf enabled but it doesnt sound like he is, this is what I am trying to find out is if he is tuned for the 2bar sensor.

boost issue seems to be fixed. i checked around for leaks and truck still acting weird with the AFR. but i switched to the 1-bar and am going to drive up to get some gas and see how she does.

It takes some effort to calibrate a MAF sensor for a blow-through turbo setup. Airflow dynamics through the sensor change as boost goes up too, so that compounds the difficulty. Tuning for that setup via mail order isn't going to be a quick process.
