Default AE801 ECU and no MAF

What would happen if I re-fitted the OE ECU and tried to transport the car off boost say a hundred motorway miles but with no MAF?

Would it drive?

It will run in limp home ,mode, probably on the rich side (mod dependant) and rpm limited but ... it would run, thats what its for. Driving 100 miles like it would be a pita imho.

I've done this. it's a pita, just dont go above 2500rpm, go on any boost or try to overtake anything quicker than a 750 panda, and you'll be fine
