Default error: P0174 and P0171

so late last night on my way home from wheeling with a bunch of buddys I notice my check engine light is on.

this moring hook up mu programmer to see what codes and

P0174 and P0171 come up.

while cleaning out my engine bay i notice one of the clamps to my cai is off at the throttle body, so the intake was off the throttle body,

would this cause these codes or is it something else??

thanks

those codes are saying the system is running too lean.

I don't know how the 05's are set up, I have a 2000. But I would think that if the CAI came off downstream of the mass airflow sensor then the sensor wouldn't show more airflow as rpms increased, so the PCM wouldn't dump more fuel in which would create a lean condition. If it came apart upstream then I don't know.
