Yea I'd say, probly run a tad rich and will have **** for low end being you will not be picking up a knock sensor which will pull timing to a certain extent being it will be in safe mode. You will be throwing CEL's for knock sensor, vtec, and IACV and it will affect everything from performance to gas milage.
