You are probably running rich. Lean is dangerous for your engine. Rich kills your gas mileage. If you aren't going to add anymore mods for a while I would invest in a dyno tune.

If you are running lean, you will be down on power. You engine temps will go up, and lean mixtures are hard to ignite. If you are rich, your fuel consumption will go up, you will be down on power. You will foul plugs and, depending on other factors, a rich mixture can lead to detonation. You would benefit from a professional dyno tune. You never did say how your car is running.
