The injen intake don't screw up too much the fuel trim and it usually stay in the positive side with around 3-4%.

Opening up that exhaust will lead to more air flowing more easily and usually lead to leaner AFR which is not too good.

Get a wideband and a boost gauge first, then start moding the car.
Either you go with Cobb or another tuning method is your own choice to make.

if you gonna do some tracks, i believe a tune is much better for your car. cobb ap gives you nice gain and custom tune can optimize power
