MAF Scaling and wierd numbers

Okay, so I have been messing with the MAF scaling and am tired of dealing with getting the MAF scaled, so I put my stock intake back on the car tonight, and rescaled EcuFlash to read up to 310 load, as I figured this would be plenty on an Evo IX. My only mods of note are ported turbo housing, 3" exhaust, ported exhaust mani, LICP, boost controller at 28psi, 1200cc injectors, walbro 255, and TBE w/no cat.

Anyways, I put the stock intake on, loaded up the tune where I was seeing low 11's gas calibrated AFR, and leaned out the car a bit. I went to my normal tuning area and took it easy for a couple straight aways. Then I started at 2500 rpms, in third gear, and went WOT. My AFR's quicly went to about 13, which is much leaner than I want to be (shooting for 12.0's tapering), and decided to come back home and look at the logs.

I was suprised to see that my load values with my stock intake were in the 380's hitting 27psi. I was seeing no knock, but the AFR's were a lot leaner than I want them to be. Are there any other settings that I need to be changing? It has been a while since I have been gone for a while, but I can't remember changing anything else in EvoScan or EcuFlash that would cause these readings.

Also, what is the standard value in the 1Byte load calculation in EvoScan. I had bumped mine up to 1.55 to compensate for the higher load values, but with the stock intake and stock turbo, I shouldn't be seeing that high of load values.

Thanks and sorry for the long post.

thats normal cause your adding more load by using the Stock Intake Box...

Well, I am not seeing higher numbers, so I don't think that is it. The numbers I see are about the same as before the intake. They are much higher numbers than even what others see with bigger turbos and more boost. My understanding was the higher numbers are from unscaled MAF's. More boost will take you into higher load columns, but not as high as what I am seeing. Maybe I am way off base here, but that is what I have seen from the research I have done.
