00' Civic EX running rich.. after muffler install.
I installed a Vibrant performance flat black muffler.. (2.5" inlet) as well as 2.5" axle back piping. Ever since my car seems to be running rich. The white bumper always seems to have a light coat of black soot on the back.
Could this be a o2 sensor problem or what could fix this? Would the vibrant muffler be causing the rich running?

The problem could be that you have a civic and you're posting in the accord section.

Do you have a wideband O2 meter? If you dont, you dont know how your car is running.
Light soot is somewhat normal, I would check my plugs and regap just in case.
