yup...Their computer wont read the AEM so its an automatic fail since it can not connect to the car.
Im thinking of getting an SCT Tuner to reflash the factory PCM just for emission purposes and swap back to the AEM right after the emission test.
I hate MD.
Anyone have a hookup? LOL

I actually have an SCT programmer I have't gotten around to playing with yet. What you really need is the Mopar Performance PCM. They are a guaranteed pass. Hard to find anymore though. I sold mine a few years back once my PCM straightened out.

I talked to Dan from DC Performance and he said they can reflash the PCM instead of buying the SCT. Its only $450 to do that. I might try that route along with new o2 sensors and see what happens..
John what PCM are you using?

Reflashed stock PCM. Let's hook up tomorrow and discuss. I may have a solution for you.

I got an exemption on my 2001 when I went a few years ago because in order for them to "plug in" to my ECU, I had to drive over the rollers. Well the car was to low (it was stock height) and would hit the rollers, the manager came out to see and said he wasn't gonna pay for a new front end on the car. So he wrote me an exemption. 
Have you gone down there?

Emissions no longer have rollers. Im going to try to get a repair waiver.
Which emission station did you go to? The one by Redland Rd?

That is because AEM isn't emissions legal. get a stock computer w/ an SCT tune or the mopar performance ECU and you'll have a better shot at passing.
good luck!

Emission stations did away with the rollers recently. I dont think any of them have it now.
Stock pcm with SCT is going to be my only option other than a repair waiver. A member here offered to let me borrrow his flashed PCM but seems like too much work.
Too much work for the lazy....:*****:
