It will just run poorly as it tries desperately to tune for the wrong fuel.

As soon as you change the physical parameters without updating the ECU, it's anybody's guess.

We definitely need more info from JUN.
Which is exactly the same thing i said. We don't know how much effort Nissan put into testing the system with things like varied exhaust cam profiles. In all likelihood they did none/very little and the system will choke when you start changing stuff...but who knows?
