    I may order two and trim the stop on the next one I install. Filled out an online warranty claim with Magnuson but they're not answering the phones so far today.

    I thought they just dropped the smog checks in SLC? I laugh every time I drive down to SLC just thinking about how badly I would fail the smog testing.

    I wish! They dropped safety inspections. So you can roll on bald tires with worn out brakes just as long as you don't have an aftermarket cat...

    Ok, that's dumb. Especially in SLC. Dallas has lots of people that drive on 50% or less tires and every time it rains (or heaven forbid, we get ice or snow) these people are all over the place.

    Man, how vigilant are they on their checks? I just did mine for the first time on my truck. It’s a 14. So in Illinois, at 4yrs old it’s starts it’s emmision inspections every 2 years. So my next one is in 2020. All he did was plug in the obd2, look at his screen,.....never popped my hood or looked under my truck. I was curious about what he’d say about my gauges and what all the questions that would ensue. However, nothing. You pass he says. My loud ass started it up, everyone starred at truck and I zipped outta there with the quickness. :burnrubber:

    Really, that is the smart way to do it. Make sure the new cars stay factory and "unfun" while letting the beaters cause accidents and be unsafe.

    Only 10 over, or did he bump it down for you? It seems like everyone out here in cali is doing atleast 10 over, probably closer to 15.

    Bummer. What a way to begin the boost season, atleast he bumped it down even if it was only by 5 mph.

    Amateur question. The Utune? program that you have to use to look at stuff and datalog with the Ucon. Is that on the memory stick that came with the Ucon? Or was that just the instructions on that? I need to find it if so. I popped two codes twice this weekend. P0172 and P0175. And got stupid readings from my Innovate MTX AFR guage. Like had 10in/lbs of vacuum while cruising and AFR hoovered at 12.8-13.2 for miles and miles. Have a new AEM AFR x-guage but haven't installed it yet. Need to. Looking at if I should maybe put in new O2 sensors or a new "non TRD" flashed ECU. Put in new A/F sensors about a year ago and a new MAF last week.

    Hey guys, this is one of my first posts in this thread. I joined the cool truck club about 2 weeks ago - and I'm sure its totally unrelated by my clutch is slipping now :anonymous:

    I ordered the urd stage 2 with a heavy flywheel as i daily my truck and do some wheeling. Was it a good call? I am wondering if i should have ordered the stage 3.
