The codes you are getting are generated in regular driving where the O2 sensors read lean/rich. At wide open throttle where the ECU is running on set tables (and not off of O2 sensor feedback), you will be running lean (increased airflow not accounted for because of incorrect maf housing size). Lean is mean, until it's not. Without monitoring this with a wideband O2 and updating to a custom tune you are asking for trouble, especially on track. What is you crazy
All makes perfect sense. I wasnt aware that at full throttle it was a closed-loop, either. Good stuff.

So, do YOU know anyone local who'd flash me to a 996 ROW?
