Actually no, anything before the MAF is free game. Saying you need a CARB sticker for an airfilter is like saying you need a methane permit from the EPA to take a ****.

You would just be paying extra for un-needed stuff. I have had several cars with the RF #1011 filter on the stock plastic chamber and using a metal tube and found absolutly no difference except using the stock plastic plenum was quieter. The RF1011 is not perfectly round thus not sticking up out of the air filter area.
