No, you shouldn't. The PCM compensates the fuel curve a little bit for increased airflow.

Not an expert, but I've heard that the OEM PCM is able to go +/- 10% fuel based on what the MAF is reporting.

Nope. It's the Fast Toys Ram Air kit. Fairly popular mod. I have one on my '99

Be careful with The FTRA I hydrolocked my car in about 6 inches of water. A truck passed kicked up a wave and it sucked up into the intake. It would have never happened if it wasn't on. The good news is a 408 Took it's place. Just a FYI...
