Smog Question

So the time has come to retire (or promote depending on your viewpoint) my mini from daily driving duties to weekend fun/ thrashing duties as I'm going to be getting another daily driver soon. This means I'm also going to start modding and tuning the car as well.

Here is my question. Where I live the smog test just consists of the tech plugging into the OBD port and a quick uninterested visual inspection. Are there any ECU tunes/flashes that will keep the check engine light off if I want to run catless pipes or anything like that? I'm not worried about the visual inspection as much since I've only ever seen my smog guy check for a gas cap and nothing more.

It's a 2011 MCS if that makes a difference.

No one can make that statement publically.

Contact MarioKart. He can help with tuning your car.
