Default Altitude changes

I am tuned at 5400 feet.
Looking to run at 630 feet in a couple months.

Issues?? Or will the computer learn?
N/A if it matters.

If your tuner tuned the maf correctly, you will be fine.

If they did not, then you may have issues.

Agreed. If you're running a Speed Density tune however, and eliminated the MAF entirely, you'll definitely run into an issue or three....

If your tuned for SD, it'll be quite lean.

Properly tuned maf, afr should not change.

Okay.
It isn't SD, so good there.

Idle may need adjusted, safe just to use the screw on the TB to help it find idle?
I won't have any software with me. At least I don't believe I will.

If anything the iac won't have to open as far to control idle with the denser air. It should be fine as is.

Best of luck with faster times in the thick air
