It really depends on how you are going to set up your fuel management.
I would personally set it up on the charge side... If you are using a standalone computer, it wont really matter as you have direct control over your injectors and not altering fuel trims through Airflow change.
Conclusion, put it on the Charge/Pressure pipe.

i have a supra tt pump, afc and 460 cc injectors. what do you think now?
if you put it on the pressure side, the tuning will be more exact (negating any boost leaks you may have since it measures absolute airflow in that section of the 'system')
I think you'll be fine using it on the pressure side. Just ensure you get it tuned

put the maf in the straightest pipe on the pressure side. You want to make sure that the air flow will be nice and straight to get accurate readings. If you stick the maf too close to a turn in the piping, the air will become turbulent under pressure and get inaccurate readings on the maf.
