HX advice (catalytic converter needed for lean burn?)

Notice: my other thread I sort of branched off and started talking about this. If a mod wants to split the thread or move those posts over here feel free, just making a new thread for the moment.

*The special air sensor
*The stock ECU
*The special catalytic converter setup

Is that all correct?

Anyways, I think there are some sensors in the cat with the HX which tell it yes or no for lean burn. Can any of you HXperts comment?
