    Wow, that’s bull crap :(

    If really happening I’m sure Northern Va is next, which means all Virginia soon after.

    Couldn't find anything at SEMA action network ...looked it up by legislation, by state, etc.

    True. May not start to notice until their $0.8 trillion-underfunded(!!) pubic workers pension fund that's largely invested in China (by their fund manager who is a Chinese turtle!) starts uncommitting pensions as it keeps losing ground as we and other democratic countries start/continue to push China back into its rabbit hole. Of course that's why Kommiefornia will vote overwhelmingly for Joe 'China-boy' Biden

    Contacted my tuner, ( www.teamjdm.com ) about this.
    They know about it, & why it happens, they are working with Saleen, who's tunes get caught up in this.
    I was assured that if N.J. starts checking this, I have nothing to worry about.
    It does matter who & how a car is tuned..

    ..................From my tuner's e-mail:
    .
    " Yes it's crazy but we have been working with Saleen on this since we do their tuning. The tuner has to use the original As Built PCM strategy code. Good news for you is we do that standard on all vehicles! NJ will probably be next for doing something like this. Saleen and some other tuners change the strategy codes sometimes and then the Inspection Station does not recognize it. "
