Can FRA cause a P0171 & P0174 ?

Can FRA cause a P0171 & P0174 ?
I started getting these 2 codes after I did the FRA mod.
Do I need to tune for this mod?
I've searched, but almost all the threads are after installing header. My car is stock, other than a lid, filter & FRA. I have about 65K miles on it.
I sprayed carb cleaner around the intake a connections to see if I possibly had an vacuum leak, but I never noticed a change in the idle (or sound).
I am going to look for my fuel pressure gauge and check the pressure. Wanting to see if there is anything else that I should/could check.
I doubt that 2 O2 sensors went bad at the same time, nor plugs on both banks.
Any ideas?

When you have a code it helps to look it up so we know and don't have to go searching.... but a PO171 and a PO171 is a lean code for both banks - I wouldn't be looking 02 sensors if they are both lean. I would do a fuel pump volume test if possible and check your fuel filter as well. Check anything fuel related from the rail back or possibly bad signal from the MAF. If you can, get some rubbing alcohol and a Q tip and very gently clean the MAF wire. You didn't de-screen your MAF like some dumb ***** did you?

The MAF is not de-screened, its all stock, other than the FRA & SLP lid.
HP Tuners shows the LT B1 & LT B2 in the red with a reading of -25% each.

get some electronics cleaner or alcohol put it on a qtip and be very careful and clean it, if you break one of the wires the maf becomes no good. you should be fine with your k&n just watch the amount of oiling you do, just has to be light.
