Keeping stock MAF tubes and smoothing the rest will yield a little more efficiency, but won't cause any change in the A/F ratio.
No thats a whole different story there, has nothing to do with the vents getting colder air to the intake box. Unless the long tubes have a bigger MAF tube, Im not sure about that.
