can you permanently set your readiness monitors with the EGR and Evap removed? only reason i ask is OBDII emissions requirements here in the great state of NY. ---

i have them totally disabled, so when i start the car the ECU wont even check to see if its there. i just dropped a 0x0001 bomb into the periphery and bingo! ---

There are a bunch of items you can turn off within tunes that the ECU will not check to see are functioning or present. This will eliminate the MIL that would normally be present. Since there is no MIL, when your car gets scanned for NYSI it will pass with flying colors. I have a bunch of items turned off within my tune (rear o2s, egr system, fuel pump driver module) and pass with no problems. ---

> [@EmeryatSTM](#): > > I dont think it matters what you do, I dont think you will ever go as fast on the stock ECU as you can on AEM. > > -Em Seems very true at the moment. Although I haven’t really browsed evom lately to see what people are doing now that the max load values are gone now. Hell, even if you can’t be AS fast as a standalone it’s a damn good alternative at this point as far as dollar value is concerned. ---

lighter than ever… the clutch will be so light its going to feel like a feather. but that is thanks for the hydralic TOB. no more damn pesky springs breaking this will allow me to actually shift as fast as i possibly could [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-evo-winter-08-09-teardown/57404.md?page=8) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-evo-winter-08-09-teardown/57404.md?page=10)
