they can pass emissions if properly configured. they can perform exactly like the original ECU if tuned well.
they don’t do OBD2 tests in my country though, only the pipe emissions test, so im not sure about that. saving a working original for these tests is an option.
Hopefully we’ll be able to find a working one soon :( our emissions here are exclusively OBD2 based for anything 1996 or newer. I’ll probably do what some other folks have recommended and try to “remanufacture” one myself.
EDIT: no idea why my client decided to post my comment twice.
i hope you find it. if its a common problem like “hey its a specific component or set of components that always blows out on these” you are probably in luck.
