Decat Fitted...Few Questions..

[Dubai182]

HI Guys,
Yaser and I fitted my GDI decat last night and i just have a few questions.
I've heard a few people say it might run lean? How will i notice this? Will i be able to smell fuel or something?
I'm getting my car serviced next week,will the decat be a problem or not?

It took us a little longer than expected (60 mins) as a couple of bolts were being a real b**ch to undo,plus we only had it on jack stands and not a lot of room to play with. We forgot to fit one spacer to the bracket end of the decat so we're doing it tonight as the bracket isn't quite tight enough and makes a rattling noise ATM.

Overall though i'm really pleased with it,sounds pretty raspy considering its just a decat and although mostly physcological i swear its a little keener after 4500 RPM. I'll put a sound vid and a few pics up after we get it all sorted tonight.

Last but not least big thanks to Yaser for helping to fit it and all of GDI who were very helpful in passing it on to different people to help me get it here in Dubai.

it won't be lean, it'll be overfueling if anything

Any clues as to how i'll notice this? Anything i can do to cure it? Also when should i expect the emissions light to come on?
