short answer yes... but it's best to find out why your car is running that lean...

You're talking about WOT right? (part throttle should be around 14.7:1)

I would check fuel pressure... a clogged filter, failing pump could cause that... also do you have any SES lights?

Have you recently reoiled your K&N filter? If so oil prolly got on the wires for the MAF and is causing incorrect readings

The MAF Transalter is a bandaid fix (if any) .. I would try to find the real problem first
