HFC and A/F ratio
Hello all. I have Crawford HFCs installed with a NISMO exhaust and all is well with the combo (apart from a few install problems, sorted with spacers - see other threads). Now, here's the question...after the install, I did not reset the ECU and the combo did not throw a CEL: anyone actually measured what effect of installing HFCs is on the A/F? I mean, the "HF" in HFCs mean a less restrictive flow of the exhaust fumes, right? If no CEL shows, then the ECU still thinks all is well (or thereabout)...but I am pretty sure that A/F will be affected. My question is by how much...

There are 2 subjects to address:
a. SES light because of excessive emissions? High-flow catalytic converters are designed to pass emission tests; therefore you should have no SES because of emission problems.
b. Do mods such as high-flow catalytic converters change the air:fuel ratio and how much? Yes the air:fuel ratio has been altered. And no I don't have the faintest idea how much.
