Less caps lock.

You can start it if you leave the MAF unplugged, but you'll probably be on the rich side, since the EEC thinks you're running 19's. Friday is only 2 days away, I'd just wait, personally.

I have a cobra that had a stock gt computer in it when I bought it. It ran ok but had alot smaller gremlins the worst of which was a very rich condition on a hot start for the first 30 seconds. The car ran ok otherwise so I personally wouldn't be to worried about starting it for a short period of time.

Do you have cats? if you still have cats then I would wait so that the rich mixture does not burn up the cats...

you'll be able to tell it's running rich but you might be surprized how well it does run. My car was no faster after I fixed my problem but it idled and started better.
