DP Tuner "emissions" tune

I have to take my truck thru emissions in Washington (at least in my county).. I was a bit nervous about passing because of all my mods and hybrid injectors..

During live tuning, Jody installed a "low fuel" tune for me.. I took my truck a few days ago to the emissions station, stuck it in my low fuel tune and it passed with flying colors

Thanks again Jody

Excellent info. Congrats.

I haven't seen any posts where anther tuner has accomplished this, though it may well be the case... just haven't seen anyone state it outright.

We have emmision testing here in Mass. I used the stock tune and passed by a large margin also.

Gotta take the truck in every year here in CO for a $69 emissions test (wat-a-joke).

While waiting, I started talking to the owner of the performace shop that has a dyno to do the tests (it amounts to testing the rev limiter and opacity). He said that he tests about 400 diesels/yr and averages 1 failure/yr. He also said that the ones that fail have other serious problems and usually run like cr@p.

I do drive it in on the stock tune just for my peace of mind.
