MAF sensor copy or genuine????

[skulz768]

hi people,
i need to change the MAF sensor on my audi Quattro 1.9 tdi R reg, I checked a few off other cars and they seem a bit smaller and they are located on the left side of the rubber pipe, and mine is located on the top of the rubber pipe with a 4 pin long plug???
anyway ive asked at euro car parts and they've got some copy one's,is there any difference in the function of the copy part compared to original??
has anybody bought a original? at what price??

regards??
