If you start modifying your intake/exhaust you can alter the a/f ratio. Sometimes it gets far enough out of range that it needs to be corrected for safe operation.

There are also a host of other parameters that can be tuned to enhance the driving experience.
With mine; it was running very rich (even at idle). My mods were: short ram intake, HFC's, and CBE. The uprev tune cured the AFR issues and eliminated the o2 sensor issues.

It is well worth the $$.
