I have no interference with the airbox. It is however extremely tight.

Several people I spoke with, including my shop doing the installation (Powertech, in NJ) and Steve Weiner, suggested that the stock airbox is actually superior to the cone filters. I believe this is due to CFD considerations and also the fact that they are pulling air from a slightly cooler location. I modified a stock airbox lid to simulate the cup airbox lid. The Motorsports airbox lid I purchased from Embs is actually for a friend's 993.
