Default 2001 GS 430 overheated - Ouch, won't start

Hi everyone
I was driving my g2 all happy and all the sudden it started running weird, I looked at the temp and it was pegged hot. I turned it off and coasted then had it towed
the next day it turns over and wont start, no water left, but no water in oil or milky stuff on oil cap. checked compression, some were normal, some were bad. Code reader said bad MAF. Maybe that's why it won't start.
I would think it would still start after if got cooked if most of the compression's were still good. I guess I'm going to do a Cylinder leakdown test next. just weird it won't start
