You will need the MAF sensor unless you're doing a speed density tune. The computer needs the IAT sensor to make fuel adjustments for fluctuating temperature conditions.

Sensors needed for engine to run correctly are Cam and Crank sensor, IAT,IAC, MAF, Water Temperature, MAP, TPS, O2 Sensor, Not 100% sure if you need Oil pressure or not and you'll probably want to run Knock Sensors.

If you are running a GM computer and remove the IAT sensor, the computer thinks it is something like -30 degrees and runs like crap. You can run without MAF if you have something like HPTuners and can fail the maf in the tune.

Why are you wanting to delete the MAF? What is your reasoning for not wanting to run it?
