It seems very laggy down low and the top end doesnt really pull as hard as i would have expected from those mods. Anyone experience this with these mods and no tune??

Thanks in advance for the help.

Interesting i did most of what you did without a tune minus a high flow cat and no fuel pump and found the mods to be quite impressive. Really makes me wonder if you have an exhaust leak with the power being down on the low end "laggy" before the hotside. I'm assuming you removed the hotside when you installed the o2 housing.

The rich condition should effect your performance but from i can gather it wont be THAT significant unless your running VERY rich or as what happened to me once very lean.
