Calling all plenum mod cars in Cali or ny that need state inspection sticker
First I’m an unfortunate resident of ny which ny, the dmv just re upped their technology in the state emissions testing this year. From what I hear Ca has same issues
so I have on my 2016 981 spyder ipd plenum / gt3 TB , kline 200 cell cats and cobb
i took my car out of hibernation this weekend and needed to get my ny state inspection renewed
I always go to my local pcar dealer , bc they take good care of me
that said new ny protocol is have pcar dealer run a Piwi diagnostics to make sure there are no error codes and the car is in good standing to get the state inspection sticker but we know that the plenum throws a mass air flow sensor error , thus erroring out the porsche diagnostic. So my car won’t pass the initial diagnostic test. Thus far I have been told my only option is to put old plenum n Tb back on which is a pia especially if you have to do this every year
i spoke to cobb , they can not play w the mapping bc that would be tampering w emissions .
Welcome any ideas

Whoa that's news to me. So the plenum seems like a mod to avoid! Already it is sort of questionable whether it really contributes to anything but now this takes the cake.
Surely there has to be a way to get rid of the p0068 code. I assume it's the ECU that is throwing the code. So couldn't someone who does custom Cobb tunes on a dyno be able to do something about it? Logic would dictate to me that they would have access to the ECU and they could do something about it? Or am I talking nonsense?

Yeah agreed. That is surprising to me. I will ask around my local P car tuners and see what they say. They work with Fabspeed quite a lot and have installed some of those gt450 packages so they should be familiar with this situation since the plenum is part of that upgrade. I am very curious now!

Sharkwerks is in CA and did EVOMS RS350 kits on Caymans with the plenum and throttle body, so maybe they'd have some info too.
