Unplugging the MAF should light up the ESP light on the dash, which on the polos is same as the traction control light. It may have been disabled if it isn't showing up.

Try lambda sensor , a few cars have increased fuel when these are not functioning.

Changed both MAF and Lambda in a OPC recently and customer got a good decrease in consumption.

Only thing that showed the problem was logs as the ecu did not flag an error.
