Yes, I understand what an open loop system is, however the trucks ECU determines when it needs to go to open loop from a set of parameters that are derived from inputs from the same sensors you have now changed. So WHEN the truck goes into open loop has been changed. So you can not rely on that as a failsafe.

I don't trip codes I dont get knocking engines run smoother ect. I really do not think I am leaning it enough to hurt anything.
on a obd2 setup I normally look for a number around 0% fuel trim
short and long term than I check the actual engine coolant temp, I test making sure there has been no power loss at any point in the throttle using an accelerometer (belkin)

Fuel trim is derived from the o2 sensor signals. The exact signals that you are also modifying, so how can you rely on fuel trim to be accurate?
Temperature is not an indication of detonation. You can have mild detonation without temp increases. You will not know it.
An accelerometer does not monitor power, it monitors acceleration. You should put it on a dyno to see if you are loosing power.
