the problem with my car last week was the lambda reading was high due to, leak in breather hose, leak in exhaust and the airfilter, i suggest u put back on standard filter and put back breather how it shuld be. also check for leaks in the exhaust

ur lambda reading ratio will be too high hence the CO levels will be too high, and may slightly overfuel BUT its all good idea to get ur car set up with all the mods tho hence im getting a dastek system for mine
