Default Is tuning required for Fast 90/90 vs LS6/ported tb

I was hoping to get my LC1 set up and try and tune my car for the first time but I seem to be having trouble getting the LC1 hooked up and grasping the tuning.
I want to run my car at the track tomorow but I am not sure if its ok to run it on the current tune or not.

The current tune is for heads, MS3, LT, 3" exhust and ls6 intake/ported TB.
Will the maf learn the tune for the new intake? Or should I just wait till I can get a new tune on it?

Tuning is required on a stock engine... haha

but.. no you dont NEEEED a tune when you install the fast 90/90 the maf and such should do its best to take care of it, but there still is the base tune in there.. you need a tune.

+1 get a tune, if you don't you probably wont see much of a gain at all. Depending on combo if you have heads/cam it'll make your idle a little cranky.

If I just wanted to make a couple passes with it, is there a way I can richen it up some so that It will be safe without using the LC1?
If so which table and how much do I add?

I ran my car with out a tune after installing the 90/90, then ran it with a tune. It's much better with a little bit a tuning.
