It is important to have the AIR system working....It does send air into the head at the exhaust valve outlet which is designed to help burn any unburned gas from the cylinder as it is exhausted. It also sends air thru the air pipe to the converter to help with combustion there as well....A car may run rich in the eyes of the oxygen sensor if the AIR system is not operating and give a check engine light.
