This is a pic of my maf off my evo, however when i cleaned my audi maf it looked just as bad. the hp increase was noticeable so get some electrical cleaner and spray it down.

CRC electronics cleaner is the only cleaner i use for my MAF. If you recharged it properly you shouldn't have any issues. If you notice a weird idle or poor response then clean it. i would clean it in about 5k regardless... its easy
