I'm with hemonu
It would appear you may have slowed down the Boxster's 0-60 (37.28 MPH) times
But I bet it gets better gas mileage now

If it is 60mph, I'll feel comfortable now that I won't have to worry about my IMSB.
The engine won't last long enough

ECU_Doctor are you the right hand sock puppet and iroczporsche is the left hand sock puppet?

Let the burn continue

Actually, with the new smog machines in CA that don't "sniff", I was able to pass with an ECU mod in my 2007 BMW. That surprised me for sure...

I had smog two years ago and they still used a sniffer. Have to re smog this year so can you tell me what is involved please. Thanks!

I *think* it is 2006 and newer don't need a sniff. older still do. Call you smog station and find out if they have the new machine or not, not all have it...

In AZ it's any OBD II equipped car that they just plug in and don't bother with the sniff test. AZ usually follows what CA does, at least they used to. I just did mine a month ago and no problems with the secondary cats deleted.
