You don't really think the guy at the smog station is going to pull your rom (which you cant do anyway with ecutek if the tune is locked) and compair ot to the one issued by the kit maker? Not gonna happen. Of course i just moved to california but i just don't see how they can enforce what tune is on the ecu unless they have access to a checksum bit and the kit maker constantly updates the records.. Far more likely the manufacturer controls who gets a carb cert at the time of purchase and then washes their hands of it.

It blows you have to pay extra to get the carb cert and then go buy a better tune from someone like @DeliciousTuning, but this what you have to do if you want a carb cert and a better tune.


Back on topic, I think the folks that have worked with race rom TC probably used throttle angle rather than fuel cut but i could be totaly wrong.
