LS1 Edit.... New Intake Manifold questions

Ok, this might be a stupid question. I had an LS1 edit last year. Now I am planning on doing an LSX Intake w/ HW 90mm TB(prepping for supercharger).

Since the tune has leaned out my intake mixture, would this addition of a better flowing manifold lean it out too much?? I am thinking that the MAF would notice that the engine is pulling in more air and in turn richen in up a bit.....right...?? Or would the flow itself not be noticed by the MAF?

Or am I just bieng paranoid??

That's what it's there for.

So, the new IM shouldn't have an effect on the mixture then?

I'm just curious...

Also, is there an adaptor for the 78mm MAF to the 90mm TB on that IM??
