Well Ike, that led me to here: https://www.renntech.org/topic/21472-fuel-air-mixture/ which is where I found that the 996 has a 3.5" tube and the 986 uses a 3". That thread was about putting a 996 engine in a 986, which is sort of the opposite problem, but for testing purposes I may just put the MAF in a bigger housing.

Alternatively, I don't have access to a PST-2, but I could make a set up to bench flash the tune from the car's existing DME to the 996 DME using Galletto. Chances are that I'd 'brick' the DME though since my knowledge is pretty shallow in that realm.
