Sorry probably should have mentioned. Here is the mod list that for the engine:
Invidia N1 cat back
Invidia catted FP
Motiv OP
FT86SF catted header
AEM intake
ECUTek tune

Nothing has changed in a month or so. Just came on on the drive home from work today.

Geez - hate to make guesses but it could be a ton of stuff. Maybe as simple as the sensor but possibly dirty or faulty injector(s). Maybe the tune needs a little tweak.

I'm going to step aside and let a pro give you better advice but I would start with the cheap stuff and move up the chain. Dealer might not be much help

Yea, i need to do another logging run anyway, so i figure ill monitor them at the same time. If the sensor was bad though, wouldnt the logs be skewed?

Okay so I did some logging this evening and the afrs regularly went into the 15s. Also, every time I shifted or let off the gas (but NOT stopped in neutral) my afrs were exactly 20. I think this is just how the reading is done. This was using the Torque app for Android.

What is considered "too lean" for this car?

I think this is too lean
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56141


I only pointed that out to show how long it takes to actually do major damage.

What fuel do you usually run?

PS - that sounds very lean to me Again - someone may tell me I'm wrong but crikey....

91 is the best I can get (easily) in my area. I feel like it's too lean too, but it's weird that I have been on this tune for a couple thousand miles and this just happened out of nowhere. I was informed, however that if it was the o2 sensor, a second code would be thrown as well, and I am assuming the same for a fuel injector, so I guess I'll get some EcuTek logs and hit up my tuner.

Yes - and maybe get a read from something external to the vehicle on that AFR.

What has your MPG been like?

Device in the exhaust reads and calculates. Same way they used to measure emissions at the DMV before plugging into the OBD port...

I see. Hmm okay. I'll need to locate one of these devices, I suppose.

Good luck and take it easy until you figure it out. Something is def not right.

Also, if it means anything, Torque reads this for the "rediness":
