Well not everyone has access to what I do but the OBD2 port works on 2.7 CAN Bus Hydras and Cruise Control and DBW Anti-lag is coming. I'm not going to say when the average consumer will have that feature but I will have it long before anyone does.
Now emission related OBD2 is what it is and it's not that we couldn't do it, it's just highly illegal. Reflashing an tampering with your OEM EPA approved ECU tune is also illegal but nobody seems to care

So for the NA guys who run the Hydra, your OEM ecu is still bolted in and you just swap the plugs, no big deal. For the boosted guys I would say most will already have a reflashed ecu prior to getting a Hydra. I may even offer a service that will be minor or no fee if you buy a Hydra where I'll flash your OEM ecu to pass. I just think many would like an non-tampered with EMS.
