Yeah it'll never happen though, not even in an industry that REALLY needs it, ag equipment. Big tech companies took notice when there was a right to repair case against John Deere in the midwest, as it would lead to everyone being able to have access to source code in tech from Apple/Microsoft/Google/etc, not to mention the big three also have skin in the game too. Apple reps actually showed up at the hearing in some little farm town to see what the case entailed. Going up against that big of a combined adversary that lines the pockets of so many lawmakers and representatives? There's no way the people will ever get that kind of freedom, the most you can hope for is the ability to do basic repair on your vehicle after multiple legal battles.

The part about the EPA and CARB that's completely illogical to me is that you can't just swap in a newer and more clean-running engine to an older chassis and be all set. If they are truly concerned with vehicle emissions, let us do individual vehicle testing like on pre-OBD2 cars. If I want to build some high compression turbo motor for my grocery getter and it can be tuned to be at least on par with the factory engine for a vehicle of that age, and I can prove each year for registration that it is running that efficiently... get off my back.

I had purchased a car with a slightly modified tune because it had a slightly smaller supercharger pully and made a little more boost. It passed the CA smog check multiple times, running just as clean as a factory stock tune, before CA changed the law to make all tunes illegal. Complete BS!

The solution is simple. Just replace the whole ECU with an aftermarket ECU, one that comes with its own software, allowing the tuner to do what he/she wants. When it comes time for an emission test prior to registering the car every year, just simply plug the factory stock ECU back in, go get it tested, then, simply swap it for the tuned ECU. It used to be, "Bolt on, go fast". Now, it's "Plug and Play"!

In Germany, this is normal. I own a tuning shop and we actually do those emission testing procedures. For a simple ECU tune, you'll be looking at around 15-20k, if you pass the first time. Of course as a company, you can sell it to as many cars as you like - if it is the car you tested with the transmission you tested (can't homologate an automatic and then sell for a manual) The bigger Problem is the combination of parts. Since you can not change the code you've homologated, there's no costum dyno tune. Just a flash tune. Also, if you want to install an intercooler, and exhaust or even sometimes different tailpipes, you will have to redo homologation for that specific combination - same thing with intake systems and so on. Imagine having 3 products as a company. An intake (IN), exhaust (EX) and ECU tune(SW). If you want to sell them all individually and in ANY combination possible, you will have to do the following homologations: IN, EX, SW, IN + EX, IN + SW, IN + SW + EX, SW + EX That's roughly 105 - 140k in homologation cost only. Add an Intercooler and you could just buy a lambo instead. Yep. The struggle of germany. If you want to know what tuning looks like in the future, Germany can give you an idea

I love that you showed Jay as the definition of a Tuner

5:00 - on a N/A motor 0% ethanol you target 12.5 - 12.7ish because that is when the burn has the most velocity and thus makes the most power. You may add more fuel to help cool the intake charge and cylinder temps. Also, 14.7 is used purely for environmental / emissions reasons around cruise rpm and MAP since leaner mixtures create more NOX emissions but also reduce fuel consumption during cruise

I always respected what Dinan did back on the early days based on the tuned BMWs I drove from the 80s and 90s. His understanding of a car’s suspension is also masterful.

These videos are most informative. A toast to excellence in education, Cheers.👍😎👍

In today's racing world, there is a huge difference between and real tuner and a computer guy. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Motown.

I've actually noticed a lot more tuners getting CARB EO for their tunes. I do believe recently APR has finally gotten EO for their tunes and even lesser known like 034Motorsport has recently gotten an EO for my car. If the company has the money and patience to plow through the BS redtape, they can get an EO.

They went the same route with Gun control in the US, drive the cost of entry up so much only the elites can afford it. effetely outlawing it for the regular folks. only the rich will be able to tune their cars, its shame because that's where so much talent is grown and built into a healthy industry and economy... but who cares about the future, might save a spotted owl in 40 years

It really doesn’t help the people mandating this are so out of touch with the modern world, the one lady that was being asked about normal people racing thought all that existed was “NASCAH”. These people need to honestly be rooted out as any GOOD tuner makes your car run better than factory. Another HUGE thing is that E85 was completely passed up on and we went straight to electric. E is cheap, renewable, and can be easily worked in but no it all has to be electric.

Yeah, e85, let’s burn our food. Did you ever wonder why your box of Cheerios is $6 now.🤦 As soon as farmers could make more money growing corn for ethanol, they used far less acreage for growing corn we consume and the food prices skyrocketed and never went back down. The epa legislation caused our grocery bills to double. Stupid effing move. Think critically people, stop thinking for the moment and try to see the big picture. What good is a “saved planet” when no one but a few can actually afford to live on it.

Another thing too is that in some cases you are better off swapping your ECU, but with complex programs that we have nowadays it is impractical to do it with newer cars.

Some tuning companies tune for emissions too. For example: when to open up the EGR valve or on a variable valve timing engine when to close the exhaust valve sooner in relation to normal valve timing.

Spot on! This is the most logical and straight forward video i've seen so far in this topic. Well done!

Funny, i reverse engineered my stock ECU and used an EEPROM to tune it at first ... but it was easier as the original PROM also contained the program, not just the data, so i figured which pin was driving injectors and coils to get a head start. There is another important aspect to the end of tuning, too; sports car engines are becoming more and more pushed in stock form. Most of them already have forged pistons and rods with forced induction, and the engine blocks are built to material fatigue tolerance, so they are lighter and smaller. The days of throwing an insanely strong and heavy lump of iron with forged internals that can withstand triple the original engine power (like toyota did with the mk4 supra) is long gone.

Excellent video. Great research.

The quote: “it would be disingenuous to think that the cammed zo6 driving around the parking lot is lowering your life exepectency, when you probablly vape” its sooo truem

The insanity of government regulation is brightly highlighted by CARB. In 2002 an acquaintance of mine took his twin turbocharged '89 Mustang to get an emissions check, after finishing his projects. The brand new EP3 Honda Civic Si that was sniff tested before his car was running dirtier across the CARB emissions test run than the modified decade old Ford.

No matter what the government is trying to regulate, whether it’s emissions, gas cans, guns, recreational plants, dog breeds, whatever, the correct answer is NO. We need to declare a 1,000 year moratorium on new laws being passed and let the bastards instead debate on which ones to repeal.

I parked my performance diesel truck in about 2015 and didnt mess with it until 2023, boy I didnt realize how hard it is to get performance tunes nowadays! Im pretty shocked how much the diesel tuning market has changed. I have 6.0 powerstroke and a LLY duramax and the tuning for both is so limited now!

Where i live in Houston, it seems every diesel truck is rolling coal or has a bolt on exhaust etc. Im pro tuning but blowing black smoke everywhere on a daily driven vehicle is excessive.

I love your content bro! Easily my favorite channel on yt rn! Keep it up!

Makes me want to build a car from the ground up with a crate engine. I'm an electrical engineer who does embedded software and I also speak solder. So I'm thinking I would just either get a COTS ECU for a small block or Coyote or do it myself. Interesting that Pappadakis' tuning of the Supra involved fabbing a custom EFI manifold b/c the stock Supra tuning was locked down tight.

The detail with these videos is why this is one of the best performance channels here. Tuners pushing the envelope and innovating is why this freedom will persist.

this video is amazing showing the lamda and all that

Love the video, but that LG G3 boot intro killed me. 😂 That was a throwback to the glory days of Android.

Another good point to mention for California is newer vehicles do not need to be smogged for the first seven years after you purchase so technically you have free reign for a few years if you want to modify and can always take it back to stock.

What you said there at 10:20 . My first thought after hearing you say that was, so it sounds like stand alone will become a lot more common, and cheaper. Then hopefully more common means more people learning on there own through forums, videos, or meeting people and asking them, instead of relying on tuners

There are ECU replacements that are tuner friendly, Holly EFI for one, it's expensive but it'll work if you're really determined to tune an un-tuneable ECU.

Add this to the list of reasons we need right to repair. I should be able to run whatever software I want to on MY car. I don't care if that's a 90's Honda or a Tesla. If the software I'm running is open-source, the EPA can check and make sure I'm not trying to defeat the smog tests. We can still verify that reasonable rules are being followed, but allow freedom to tune to their heart's content
