air filter question

[ttford07]

Just a quick question browsing the forums and a was reading something about droning. I ve dona alot of stuff to my 7.3 and well when i was filling out the order form i forgot to put in a 6637 air filter. My turbo housing is 4 in and i delteted the ccv intake peace. cuz i forgot to mention this am i gonna have to send my chip right back when i receive it(ordered nov 10 and still dont have it) tell you what not having a chip since the end of oct really sucks, my fault though new parts old chip didnt work the php seemed to be what i needed so im hopeing its a badass product. anywase back to my question will an airfilter really make that big of difference or is it just the intake style? thanx guys
