To the OP, sorry, but I'm not an expert on tuning and A/F ratios and whatnot. Here is a link to Tony's (from F.I.) response in another thread:

The thread itself:
Intake, Header, HFC, CBE = Too Lean?

Tony's informative response:
Retune after intake/cbe/hfc


Others in the thread mentioned you may be ok not retuning if the only mod you have is the intake. Best thing appears to be deciding what mods you're going to do, completing them, and checking the A/F ratios afterwards to determine if you're in the optimum range or not.
awesome! thats perfect! thanks for the great links! im also going to consult with Nissan Techs and see what they say.
