intake changes will cause the ratio change more than exhaust changes. The change in o2 sensor position will cause some change in how the computer reads the exhaust. If you have cai/tb/plenum and not a tune yet you'll want one by now.

Thats what I thought. If the o2 sensors are farther away, I would think that it would read the a/f to be more lean and in response, richen it up. Correct me if I am wrong though.
