Am I looking at how it is leaner than stock after about 4150 rpms?

Lemme know if I'm going in the right direction with this... So the intake is allowing more volume of air to flow into the engine, but at the same velocity past the maf sensor. This makes the maf sensor think that there is less air than there actually is, since the maf doesn't measure the amount of air, it just makes an assumption on the amount of air based on how much the air cools the maf. Am I getting there?
