You'll have to give it a little longer than 15 minutes to get an answer buddy.
It's hard to say without seeing it myself, but from the sounds of it I would reinstall a factory stock mass air sensor and go from there.
You're not being very specific here, which vacuum line did you disconnect, why did you change the maf, what kind of maf did you install, if it's a C+L which sample tube did it come with, did the car run fine before, etc etc etc

Are you running 30lb injectors or stock injectors? From the sound of it, the car runs rich until you unplug a vacuum line which allows unmetered air into the engine to lean it out. Sounds like a MAF problem. Try a different MAF sensor calibrated for your injector size. Those C+L maf's are very finicky at best.
