Fuel consumption will increase from 0.2 on tickover to 0.4 or even 0.5 (if you have the fuel computer set to instantaneous consumption). If driving, then the consumption will drop down to 30 mpg, or even lower.

The exhaust note will sound slightly heavier.

You might see smoke emitting from the exhaust.

Performance will feel slightly sluggish.
