Default Changing MAF size after mail order tune... safe?

OK, so I had a mail order tune done solely for the purpose of getting my car from the garage to the dyno (for dyno tune)... and for just long enough to get 500 miles on the new clutch.

After the tune... I realized I need to go bigger on the MAF. So the initial mail order tune was done assuming a stock 75 mm MAF, now I've got the 85 mm. Is it going to be safe or is changing the MAF very significant.

Engine is 427, TFS 235s, FAST 92/92, 254/262 cam...

Why not wait and just change it at the dyno shop?

Drive it easy until you get it tuned, and you should be OK.
