[QUOTE="Blkkbgt, post: 16395067, member: 117234"] I doubt its actually random. After doing a lot of research I believe the state has been keeping tabs on who has an aftermarket tune for years are are just now getting around to going after people. I say this because years ago they started preventing people from smogging cars with emissions monitors turned off. The state computer knows what monitors are supposed to be supported and if even one of them, say egr was off the state computer wouldn't communicate with the ecu for the test. I am willing to bet a record of the non communication was made at that time using the vin. People then had to get the monitors turned back on to pass smog but the record was already generated using the vin and now they are coming after us. Random inspection my ass. Some of this tracking could have also started years before as well for all we know. Decipha has stated that the state CAN tell if you car has a tune on it with SCT. Do a search for his name. You may be getting sent that way and not randomly. People have been claiming that the state cant tell if your car is tuned but its false. They know the second the car is hooked up to the machine. I also believe SCT shared all our information with the epa when they went crawling to the feds to self report and avoid a massive fine. I have zero proof, just suspicion. Put your stock stuff back on and trudge through. [/QUOTE]
