On the instructions that came with my CAI it specically stated that running the engine without a tune sould damage the engine and that the engine might not even start. I was also warned by the people at American Muscle, not to run the engine without a tune for the CAI.

A tune required CAI on an engine without a tune will result in running lean and eventually damage the engine.
A CAI & custom tune on the 3.7L will NOT produce 35-40 RWHP. You have your head up your Truckbutt.
You'll need the tuner and revised tunes for LT headers. I agreee with the order in the OP's 1st post. Although, I'd consider another CAI besides the AirRaid.

There is another thread here that says Steeda requires a tune, and here see this is right off their page....remember I said when they make the MAF bigger need a tune..here is from their site " Next we increased the MAF housing size "
