It's very illegal, but undetectable unless you're looking for it and have the Subaru dealer diagnostic tools. OBD-II scanners don't pick it up on pre-'05 models.

So it is picked up on 05+ models?

Oh and Kevin, im soooo going to steal that avatar for other forums :rotfl:

The smog checkers should be able to read the check sum/VIN code on '05+ stock ECUs. EcuTek says they will not provide a way to defeat this as it's illegal to do so.

Thanks to nKoan for the avatar. :D

[QUOTE=Kostamojen]Not really, unless the smog shop knows turbos and knows the injectors arent supposed to be pink, or knows to look for the uppipe, you should be fine... Its all "bolt on" stuff that will pass visual, which they mostly look for wrong color piping or intakes/aftermarket exhausts/obvious modifications.
