Just keep inn mind in many states now the test equipment can "see" a tune on a car so its imperative to flash back to the OEM tune every time you go in for inspection. Make sure to drive 30-40 miles to let the reset take place on the sensors. Every time you flash you need to let everything reset.

Hey, do I really need to flash back to stock tune to get the pass result? I have the upgraded bump and E50 in the tank. It's kind of hassle to run the stock tune for that setup and I'm worried to screw this whole thing up.
Anyone has experience to pass with STG2 OTS tune? BTW, I'm running Fabspeed Catted DP. |

Speaking with years of experience with a catless on a hopped up 320i back in the day. It's one of the reasons why I won't get a catless on the M2. Total PITA |

with bootmod3, when you use the feature to disable CEL due to catless DP, it leaves one of the emissions 'monitors' not ready. depending on your state emissions laws, you may be allowed to have some of the monitors 'not ready', maybe even multiple.
you could try disable the feature, and drive car just enough to be 'ready' but before it gets a CEL. that's all timing though.

Before you mess with the spacers, simply flash to stock, drive around for 20min and then try the emissions test. I usually do one of the self test kiosks so I don’t have to talk to someone if there’s an issue. If I follow that approach, I’ve passed each time with my 300-cell HJS cat. If I forget to flash back to stock, it’ll fail. Also, you can use your OBD dongle for BM3 and a cheap phone app to check O2 readiness before you go test. |
