If your 22re incurs a EFI error code... does it kick the ECU into a limp mode and keep it that way until your reset it? Or, does it just store the error code and perform as normal? I have a feeling it's the first option as I incurred a code 6 (missing signal from dist.) and the engine just didn't feel right. After resetting the code via pulling the EFI fuse... Now it feels stronger running again.

I think it depends on the error code. I've had a few O2 sensor codes over the years and never feel any difference before and after clearing the code. But when you clear the codes you also reset all the other stored parameters in the ECU and it goes into relearning mode. So it may have had some older stored params stored and now that it relearned it is with better data.
