Default Does a P0106 code affect tune/power?

I'm throwing a P0106 (MAP sensor) code after my cam install, and from what I understand, the MAP values just need to be raised @ idle. Problem is that I'm 4 hours away from Revxtreme (where I got my car tuned). So I was wondering if the sensor is just whining & tripping the light, or will it affect things like fuel trims, timing, etc. and reduce power?
thanks

P0106 can make the car run rich. Ig the MAP isn't working then it can really damage the car.

Thanks. It does smell rich, but seems to run ok. Guess I'll just hafta make another trip down there.
