Default Do VE tables affect smog?

I have to get my car smogged(CA) tomorrow. My VE tables are not perfect, -15 in most spots(LTFT). Will this affect my car being able to pass smog? Or should I put the stock VE tables back in?

Thanks,

If you are running with O2's which you must be due to trims, then they will keep you at stoich. So it will be down to your cam... If you are stock you "should" be ok.

Thanks,
I had my car smogged with the same cam and VE tables similar (before I tuned them back inline) and it passed pretty easily. Gotta love CA...

What are the chances of me taking a look at your tune?

It was just the stock tune when I had it smogged, but I'll email you both the stock and what I'm using now if you like. Just give me your email address.

Hope you pass. As long as they dont make it go into WOT you would be ok, right? The PCM should pull it back to the right AFR, however, do they test the raw amount of emissions or just the ratio or gasses?
