    California Tunes

    Hey all,

    I have a 2013 A7 and I wanted to ask what tunes are best for California. Are there any solid tunes or stages that pass emissions or do people prefer to flash back to stock for any service or inspections?

    Of course this is all hypothetical since we are all 100% compliant all the time

    Tuned itself won't cause it to fail emission.

    Just get the 91 octane ECU tune, California Smog should not be a problem, TD1 & Audi warranty is a different issue.

    The 3.0T tunes do not affect emissions testing or readiness.
