Default Throttle bodies and CAI's

These new throttle bodies (BBK, Holley) have round ports and will not fit the flat/oval tube on my CAI (I assume it's stock on the '98 Cobra) Anyway, I shopped around for different CAI's and noticed that none of them have the electrical jacks that I have in my stock CAI. Also, do any fit the cone K&N filter or will I have to but a new flat cone deal? So, I believe these to be a bit of a dilemma unless someone can shed some light on the situation. What do you do?

How about these? They are advertised as being specifically for your car.

The electrical hook ups are to your MAF correct? you will reuse that with an aftermarket CAI.
