The MAF actually works better with more air coming into it. Basically, it reads more accurately than other sensors, by sending air flow data to the engine so it can use a more balanced A/F ratio for combustion. To my understanding, the biggest problem with tuning won't be the MAF. It'll be the DBW throttle.
