Looking at the sct website you can still by the tuning device but they won't alter anything to do with emissions.

Lack of traffic doesn't absolve our commitment to keeping things organized. It makes it easier for all even if there isn't ten new subjects on the first page every time it's selected.

I know. Was just venting over the fact that the US is one of the cleanest nations and yet we are making all the sacrifice

I don't disagree and I'm not trying to start anything but at the same time there seems to be a subjective approach to it. Some posts are moved when they really are a general topic focused on something Camaro related and others which ask for help about a specific topic and clearly fall into a technical category (not general) are left alone.

We are trying...

Some are a stretch to “Camaro” related items, which is the original intent of the general page... The thread in question doesn’t fit this bill, but when I come in here and there are 5 wheel threads, 2 threads about some former vendor getting smacked down, and 8 SS/LS/LT/ZL1/Z28 bolt on’s, it’s almost like fingernails on a chalk board...

I’m trying to balance a lack of activity with relevance and viewership/comments.

It isn’t perfect, and I apologize for that; it is a balancing act.

I didn’t see it as either of you were trying to start anything...

I really do appreciate the more veteran members that are still here and engaged.

Thank You...

The Environmental Protection Agency, which is an AMERICAN agency, should focus on China?

What are you even trying to say here?!

OH I see your post about the US being one of the cleanest nations, and lol no that isn't even really true either... like all of the EU has stricter emissions laws than us and has for many years.

Just so we are clear, I KNOW.
I popped it off as a smart @ss comment.

The EU as a whole is relatively clean however the UK still ranks higher in pollution than the US. The US ranks lower than most. The middle east ranks the highest...

Either way, my point is that they keep holding us down to more and more strict standards when it isn't our vehicles causing the worlds issues. Yes we play a part but emissions from these countries as well as from cargo ships, cruise ships, and other industries world wide are the bigger problem.

So Steve, any insight on what this means for us non cat guys, that will still need future tunes as we mod. Have a cam and underdrive on the way that will be installed over the Holidays. Should we be considering swapping to Hi flow cats, or what's to be expected?
