    Default Weird ECU

    As you all know I have TJ's car for smog again, pulled everything off except AGP T3/T4 Kit because my smog guy doesn't care about it. We put it on the dyno and the car passed but failed on the moniters, so I did a sh%t load of driving which also didn't help so I used all data moniter cycle info ran it on the dyno and it still didn't help and I had to use my own FWD ECU and did more sh%t load of driving still nothing... I was running out of ideas and then I decided to use Slobos ECU for the hell of it, and the monitors lit up as a Christamas tree and of course it passed. How weird is that?

    Make sure that you guys put the little ground between cat. and chassy for O2 when you smog your car.

    I think my old ECU was in TJs car at one point. Is that the one that's failing? It passed smog for me just fine around the time we traded.
