So will a BBK work properly with a Tune?? I know this sounds like a stupid question, but still being new to this mustang thing (and still never driven a Mustang in my life though I own one now). Just wondering because I have a C&L now, but I do love how the BBK looks..

BBK will work properly with the correct tune. IMO BBK looks good, but you'll loose a few ponies going from C&L to BBK, I'd just keep the C&L unless you are constantly looking under the hood.

Guess I will keep the C&L and figure a way to dress it up. But yes, the BBK does look good, especially because of the chrome look

I've heard a number of folks state that they began throwing CELs after a number of months and it always seemed to be when the weather began to get colder.I suspect the change in air density has an impact. With a no-tune required CAI with no CEL, you're operating pretty close to the ragged edge of throwing a lean code anyway.
