tuning in ontario??

heres my question

because of the new emission laws in Ontario how do you tune your car put turbos or superchargers on and tune ur car if the test requires u to plug into ur obd2 and requires vin number vehicle info ect..

its almost like you wud have to put it back to stock for the test then re install all parts including tuned ecu

plz explain

If you keep the main catalytic converter/pre-cats you're usually fine with a proper tune.

He's talking about how a modified car would pass the emissions without talking everything apart, like if you put a turbo or supercharger on a stock car

once your ECU is test ready and has no codes you're fine. hondata makes it easier to pass the test.
