4L80E without tuning?

Even if you do the wiring mod to run a 60E tune, you will want to modify the shift tables, etc. and disable some DTCs that are going to pop up.

In 2013 CA is changing the smogging procedure. For 2000 and newer cars there will be no sniffer, but the word is that the functional test (where they scan your PCM) will be more strict, and will be able to tell if the PCM has been altered via checksums (I think that's what they are called). No one knows for sure what's going to happen. I'm trying to plan for the worst case scenario.

Without the segment swap the truck should be shifting backwards ( with the forward gears ) so u might need to manually select 3rd with OD off and LIGHTLY push the throttle( if u push it hard it will keep it in low gear, but it should move around in reverse no problem =)

Look at the hand held tuners. There technically legal per the magnusonmoss act. Magnuson . The smog program can't change that. There is no way for them to check every car and see whats been modded in the calibration. Some vehicles have 3 or 4 different calibrations available from the factory to correct for various conditions.
I disabled the EGR and AIR Injection in the tune and that's not even detectable by today's test standards. The parts are still in place for the Visual part of the inspection and they can be activated with a scan tool with Bidirectional controls. For a smog test, The vehicle has to be hot to be tested correctly. The Air injection only works on start up and the test never goes to a high enough speed to enable the EGR. Even so, My Truck actually ran cleaner then prior years after it was tuned.
Most likely they will do away with Test only stations and possibly do away with the dyno portion of the test since it's not really accurate. They rumored doing away with sniffer but I don't see how. That's how they catch most gross polluters or vehicles with gutted cats. If any thing, they will most likely be reading VIN numbers from the ECU to verify what the Smog tech entered into the computer is valid to the vehicle being smoged. The problem is that with the right equipment and software you can change that on any vehicle.

It's all Bull ****... They have been saying there going to revamp the program for years. They can't even get the CAN cars to read and work correctly with the current software. Some car likes fords from 2003 up can't even be hooked up through the OBD2 port because the Smog machine can't comunicate on the CAN bus with the current software. Ever hook up a scan tool to a newer VW with an aftermarket radio??? It will Fry what ever you plug into the OBD port. The Vehicle owner has to put a factory radio in just to get a smog test.
