Default Relocating the IAT and filter after a tune

Would relocating my IAT sensor or air filter mess anything up if it's already been tuned?

My IAT is currently stuck in the pre-turbo pipe and I would like to relocate it closer to the throttle body.

As for the filter, I currently run a pipe from the turbo to the stock airbox location and would like to just run a filter directly off the turbo housing to see if it would help anything?

Moving IAT could because of the air temp change but I doubt it is going to be a big enough change to notice.

Trying to understand where you put it.. Is it pre intercooler or after

It's pre-intercooler right now. On the charge pipe right before the turbo inlet.

Well the air is much hotter where you have it placed right now. Its hard to say. I would suspect that it would change the ratio but again I am not sure how much it would change.
