The carb cert is only for the supercharger, we don't have to go get it certified. Yes, his other mods won't pass smog but all we want is the main thing to be carb legal. Removing the cats or exhaust is easy unlike the SC.

We would love to get a full custom tune but we just don't have that option if we want to stay legal

The simple fact is he has hfc's so I dont understand how you would be carb certified with that? Tom I know your having the issues, but how can you say you want carb certification when you have the hfc's, just go get a tune man and be done with it.
Wanting CARB certification on a supercharger sold as CARB-legal is totally reasonable. If he didn't care about CARB cert, it would be much cheaper to have gone another route...

I totally understand, I was just pointing out that getting a tune elsewhere won't meet his criteria. Others are suggesting this as a solution but he has indicated he wants the CARB cert. He can't get that anywhere else and getting the CARB cert is really the root of the problem for Stillen as well.
