This code is not because you're actually running lean. I know you said you reconnected the MAF, but have you gone out and made ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that the MAF plug is FULLY SEATED? This is a common mistake, because it's not that easy to get it fully seated. When the MAF plug is not fully plugged in, the car runs like total ass (almost like on 3 cylinders), and it throws codes.
Your talking about the maf adapter plate thing that belongs on the cone filter am I right? Also, my car doesn't have warranty so none of that is my concern. The only maf that I myself and my brother reassembled was the air flow meter. We simply just took it off the stock air box and added it onto the new cone filter. Harness is plugged in correctly but If you said its not fully seated. I'll make sure that everything is tight and fit. I guess the dealership visit will be canceled since you said they don't know shiett. I'mma have to drive the car to a known performance shop that does the boost leak test. I'll let you know what I discover. Thanks for your concern
