Intake Air Temp reading 6°F too high. Is this a problem?

If you were to correct the 6* difference, what are your expectations in performance? Personally, I don't think its worth the effort because there is little to gain for a relatively small temp difference i.e. minimal effect on A/F ratio.

I really don't have any expectations of performance gains (other than maybe getting closer to proper AFR). Mainly just wondering if this is something to be fixed or ignored. I'll put you in the "ignore it" column.

Do you know if it would cause any problems if I swapped the MAFs? I can't see any problems but I don't always grok modern engine control and would like to get some input from someone that does.
