I have a 2013 GTI. Mods:
GIAC Stage II Tune
GIAC DSG Tune
Unitronic 2.0 intake
Ultimate Racing Downpipe + CBE
GFB Diverter Valve +
I'm in California and it's due for a smog. I'm also trying to sell the car so I'll need to smog it anyway.
I don't have any of the original parts because I'm a damn moron, all the work was done by a shop years ago.
So now that I have shot this gaping hole in my foot, realistically speaking, how in the hell can I get a smog pass on this thing?
I have one guy interested in my car who claims he knows someone who can smog pass it with a CARB legal intake, another who told me it's the tune that's the biggest problem.
I'm desperate for information here on what I can possibly do. Will gladly compensate anyone who can help me with this. It's been such a stressful ordeal for me these last few months and I literally have no idea what my options are here.
Also, I fully realize what a short sighted decision I made with this car 5 years ago when I did these mods and being in California. I don't even drive the car anymore as I've since paid it off and it just stays in the garage, only 40,000 miles and in pristine condition and soon I won't be able to even register or drive it.... :yikes:
Thank you kindly. I mean really, any info is extremely appreciated.
