Part Throttle tuning for MAF (was MAF tables have a max of 255)

I may be way off here but I think to do what you want you have to modify the
MAF tables.  The MAF tables contain values that tell the ECM how much air is
being ingested in the motor. If the MAF is ported, these figures become
skewed.  There is no BPW vs load as you mention that I know of.  The MAF
should calculate that on its own.  Again, I'm kinda new at this so I might
be way off.
Please let me know what you find out since I have an 89 Corvette that I am
building a 396 for with a Super Ram.
