Default Richer or Leaner

Does taking off the stock CATS and replacing them with a test pipe with a resistor make the car run more leaner or richer.

Deleted. I attempted to answer your question, but then saw that you are running NOS.

Not using NOS, just driving around town would it be one way or the other.

Seems to depend on how your ecu responds. For most you would go leaner, but some ecus are compensating and going a little rich.
