    So I just took delivery of my 2015 Tundra on Thursday, and I was able to pass the smog yesterday, but the tech said that in order to pass future tests I would need a carb-approved or certified label on the intake. But for that I would have gotten smog certificate.
    Anyone have any experience on this? If so, how do I get this label to put on? I've seen some label samples online but they are from the vehicle manufacturer. I've reached out to Bully Dog via email but haven't heard from yet. I will call as next step, unless someone can be so kind to shed some insight...

    Just take of the bully dog sign or paint it black so it's not noticeable because that part of smog is only visual

    Why not buy a cheapie stock Tundra "pull off" air box off Craigslist? Dime a dozen. Throw it on the day before your next smog test. Put Bully Dog back on day after. Easy peasy!
