Yes, bolt them on. They don't change much. They won't affect the fueling.

My seat of the pants dyno got a noticeable boost with the DP intakes. I did not do any tuning changes.

I have heard the same. The DP carbon intakes are much larger than the non-DP ones and can have an effect on fueling. Whether they actually do or not I don't know.
See ya,

"If" the DP air intakes can induce some sort of ram-air effect (and I did say "if") then there would be some degree of increased air pressure within the air box at speed.
Since the air pressure sensor measures directly from the airbox, then any increase in pressure = increased in fuel metered = higher air/fuel concentration to the cylinders.......so, yes, you would feel a (slight) improvement in the power delivery.
(similar, really, to the engine behaviour on cold days vs hot days: the power delivery feels stronger....)

The difference here is that I'm speaking (typing?) from experience...
