Question Air cleaner replacement.

dear all,
i'm planning to replace my 2009 FLHX stock air cleaner with Arlen Ness's 'Big Sucker' (p/n 18-510).
would anyone know whether the ECM has to be re-tuned or re-calibrated if i want to carry out this modification plan?
i appreciate your comments and insights.

American iron magazine March 2010 issue pg 56.They installed the A.N. stage 1 and said: "Since 2008 and later bikes have O2 sensors in their exhaust header pipes; the stock EFI ECM module adapts this air cleaner change. That means we and you will not have to do any EFI map changes after this install." Hope that helps.

May be able to get away with it. It is best to have it tuned, however I installed pipes, SE A/C and some IED's in a bud's 08 and his is fine.
