Cool exhaust system changes

Aside from the aftermarket full exhaust system replacement, what are the proper adjustments and modifications needed to the intake system on the new twin cam 96b. Aside from a less restrictive breather, will the computer need reprogrammed to deliver the right air/fuel mixture?
A sporty I used to own years back developed some problems I'd like to avoid with this bike.
