He won't have to re-display after setting "from the beginning" in the display options.

It shouldn't be... But from your sig, it looks like you have a lot happening in that area:
- K&N filter, removed intake elbow, open air box, deckplate mod
So, did you close the deckplate, but leave the elbow out and have the top open? if so, then what you may be feeling is a result of hearing the air being sucked in through the smaller hole from where the elbow was. i.e., it's psychosomatic.

i think you may have lost too much intake velocity and/or are just getting TOO much air by having the deckplate open, the lid open, and the elbow removed. I would just go with the deckplate open, close the lid and put the elbow back on.

Never could tell much difference at all one way or the other on my 01, 2.7 after the deck plate mod. It sounds different but thats about all.
