u mean it will lean out because the ecu will still allocate the same amount of fuel because it still thinks the catalyzer is there (when its not) ?
er... then pls tell me what is the point of having an o2 sensor?
aint that spose to detect changes?

Warm,
Go dyno with A/F. At least it takes your worries away as soon as you know whether your ECU is stuffing up the A/F or not

jaafar has 100cell/200cell free flow cats too, currently out of stock but he can get it if he want, replace it with the restrictive cats the eu cars are having could gain more power as well
hope this helps.

Secondly, piston can sustain more leaner AF and Knocking than Rotor....... But for NA it's always better to keep some back pressure (This is Jaii's approach to Kyoto Protocol.... ), unless the car is idling at 2k rpm.... hhehee
