Right. I thought mayyyyybe a tune could help if I tuned a little lean and maybe bumped up some timing. I know that air is "thinner" (less oxygen) but was curious if I could offset that any at all on my own. So far non-positive displacement boost would be the only thing I would consider at altitude.

The tune would have been especially pertinent if MAF sensors were more limited in their use, but the answer from shiv clarified that for me.

I'm still pretty new to software tuning, so I figure a few questions like this can't hurt. Maybe someone else will see it and learn without asking for themselves.
