...or you could do what I did; at least on my 200q20v, the hose
coming off the MAF sensor is the same size as a rubbermaid 1 cup
serve-and-save container.  Drilled a hole about right enough for a
compressor fitting to just barely fit(really tight), and tada...

I have no idea if this works on any other car.  It probably works on
S-cars too, but no guarantees.

Total cost is probably around $5.
