Theres alot more than just that, but yes, those two are musts. If you've got more air, you need more fuel to burn it. Simple rationality.

archemedes street rep is low. keep going

cam should be changed, heads reworked, pistons should be upgraded (stock pistons are not designed for boost and new ones are cheap insurance) bearing clearances should be checked
