The Airaid is not going to cause any issues until you remove the venturi tube and increase the CFM. Then you have to have the MAF tables remapped. Otherwise you will go into failsafe. It is pretty much 2 for the price of one. Run it out of the box, or chuck the venturi tube, retune, and get even more power out of it.

I took out my venturi when I got my tuner but I kept it in case I have to go back to stock since I dont have a stock airbox. It is easy to remove or install it.

Dont know but I would check both kits out before doing this. Also look on the airaid and K&N sites for cleaning procedures which also may be different. This is actually something I should look into because I have the K&N CAI for my wifes durango but the airaid on the mustang,
