by right the o2 sensor should be placed before the cat, or else it might get erroneous readings

maybe some of that stuff you failed to clean properly, so it lodged itself onto the o2 sensor?

bevery careful with the o2 sensor, very fragile

how lean are you talking about?

seriously, the narrowband o2 are only good to display 14.7, richer or leaner than that its pretty inaccurate. if your car's fuel consumption didn't go up, idles properly, no knocking noises, then its okay. But if you are really paranoid, go hook up a wideband o2.

szekeiemme,

Sorry for the late reply.

It's due to a different flow pattern and rate that has affected the reading. I think resetting the ECu and let it adapt to the new flow rate will solve the problem. Resetting? You know how lar.. haha!!

your exhaust has better flow now. So you are leaning out, you can bring it back to normal by adding more fuel with piggyback modules, then you will get slight increase in hp. Turst me, that is what we called, less-backpressure, a step to increasing horsepower of your engine
