Exhaust and Intake b4 tune can hurt?

Will running the car with a cone filter intake and TBE hurt the car? (run it lean as compared to stock?)

thx.

how will the car run richer? I figure give the same amount of fuel from the tune, more air in (better air filter) & fas expusion of exhaust cases (more free flowing exhaust) will result in a leaner mixture, no?

Since an intake isn't going to really do anything anyway until you have alot more mods I would just throw on the exhaust. Our cars breath well from the factory, with little mods a k&n drop in is all you need.
