Ok guys, regardless of the (obsolete) sniff check and CARB legal CAI, CA now (as of end of July 2021) uses OBD hookup to prove vehicles haven't got a non CARB compliant ECU flash/tune.

Many of us are running tunes from UpRev (website specifically states illegal in CA) or EcuTek (not sure about CARB legality) and the "stock map" will still show as a aftermarket flash.. So what is your plan next time smog check comes around? I'm not hearing back from anyone that "helped" with smog pass in the past.. DM's are open if you have.

Anyone with an EcuTek tune know if they have a CARB legal version?

ALSO- possibly related: what shop in SoCal has the cheapest labor if we need exhaust component swaps back to stock?
