No combustion -> No pressure increase in the cylinder -> less exhaust backpressure -> less remaining pressure in the cylinder as the exhaust valve closes -> less pressure in the cylinder as the intake valve opens -> more air into the cylinder -> drop in MAP, even with everything else remaining constant.
