Yes, Johnny - you'll be fine.

To anyone else reading this - DO NOT, repeat, do not set your tune back to stock before getting an emissions test. If you do, it will probably fail due to a P1000 code that will be set. Just remove the programmer from the dash and remove the cord from the OBDII port (so the emissions people won't see it).

I actually don't even bother taking the cord out of the truck. I just tuck it up out of sight under the dash and don't worry about the little "dongle" that is sticking out beside the A-pillar. But I DO remove the cord completely when taking the truck to a dealership (and of course I set the tune back to stock then too).

- Jack
