Default tune question?

ok so ive been having problems with my mass airflow sensor, and the dealership i work at said it is the computer. so i ordered a new computer and they put it in, but the car still runs like crap. so heres my question if this fixes the maf problem how should my car run with the mods i have on a stock tune? i know it wont be the best, and how far could i drive it on the stock tune cause my tuners almost 60 mile away.

Probably very lean. Not a good idea to drive it much. Driveability will probably have serious issues also.

Thats because you have no cats. It will smell even if it's lean.

Mine is the same way, even when idling at 15:1 according to the wideband. It burns my nose hairs.
