I'm considering reprogramming the car to a ROW tune. As I understand it, the car will stop monitoring the secondary air system and the CEL will stay off for the 410 and 1411 problems. That's my goal at this point.

Here's my question. When the smog police plug into the car, will it show the secondary air system monitor is turned off? The car passed its smog check three month ago with flying colors, but a secondary air system monitor off will be an automatic fail in the future.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
What has been done so far for the $6k?

Do you hear the secondary air system pump running for a couple minutes after you start your Boxster (cold)?

Do a search on this site to find what others have found with these codes.

What condition is your gas cap seal? Inspect for cracks on the seal.
