Could be something else random like the temp sensor keeping it on enrichment, also super is a bit denser which could affect it.

Well, MAF is mass air flow, I don't think SV uses one. MAP is manifold air pressure which it does use.

Well you have a few things on the go, could also be something daft like TPS needs doing. Or nothing at all and you got a whiff of petrol left over from cold start that just vaporised.

If it feels to run alright then pop it on a dyno and run it up, see what you get.
