[QUOTE="cesar24, post: 16335143, member: 137838"] A bit of an update. I went to the referee today and it failed. Went with the tune and pulley still on. They said the monitors were all on but their new software tells them if it's not a factory tune as soon as its plugged in. They said it gives them a question mark on the computer and that's how they know it's not stock. I had the stock cover on the supercharger and covered the front of it so you couldnt see through it but they peeked through the back of it and said it needed to have the stock pulley. As far why it was flagged it was either the smog tech who flagged it or either shops have updated software that tells them it has a tune. So I have to put the stock pulley back on and get it reflashed by Ford and I have to show them proof to even make an appointment by taking pictures of everything done. So putting the stock tune back on with the SCT isn't gonna cut it. They even pointed out the boost gauge but they noticed it didnt work. I had disconnected it and put the vaccum boost lines back to stock before going in. Hopefully this doesnt happen to anyone else because they literally want EVERYTHING stock! [/QUOTE]
