Yes, those are the short term fuel trims and they are changed for driving conditions - but they will not be correct until the long term fuel trim tables are updated after 500 miles - then and only then will the short term fuel trim tables be accurate and optimized.

Air/fuel misture on the modern engines is almost instantaneous. The PCM constantly reads the O2 sensors, as well as the MAF sensor, air temp sensor, ect., it then computes the most optimum air/fuel ratio, and constantly changes this as you drive. Chaning the air filter or cat back exhaust will be sensed almost instantly by the computer. Besides, there is litte to no affect with these items in regard to air/fuel mixture.
The transmission has a learning capability, called adaptive strategy, that will adjust with driving over a period of time, usually within 50 miles. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
