Why not?

I've not installed one personally, but have followed several posts. What I've gathered is they don't really do any good....don't know if it'd hurt though.

Oh yeah, the Airaid makes a real nice whistle/squeal especially if you have aftermarket air intake installed. I took mine off and sold it on eBay. Ah, the sound of air rushing into my engine without the squeal, tis a beautiful sound.
