You'd be correct in assuming that without the O2 sensor, you won't go into lean burn mode. Now with the new sensor you should be able to tell the difference.

Are you considering any modifications? Some aeromods would definitely do you good at 65 mph.
yeah, its seems almost all the references to the HX model are from 6th gen civics, not too many 7th gen ones.

as for the the aeromods, probably not. I dont have a whole lot of time or money to devote to this car. maybe some small things like a radiator block, or some kind of lip. an undercar something would be nice from the noise perspective.

with lean burn, what should i be expecting to feel? where would i feel it, in something like pedal resistance?
